The Talmud has two components; the Mishnah (Hebrew: משנה, c. 200 CE), a written compendium of Rabbinic Judaism's Oral Torah; and the Gemara (c. 500 CE), an elucidation of the Mishnah and related Tannaitic writings that often ventures onto other subjects and expounds broadly on the Hebrew Bible. "Talmud" translates literally as "instruction" in Hebrew, and the term may refer to either the Gemara alone, or the Mishnah and Gemara together.

These writings were written after Yahshua.
In my opinion, most Jews had gone astray at the time of Yahshua; but since then have strayed even further.
Karaite Jews seem to be on the right track; however they don't accept Yahshua.
1 Corinthians 4:16King James Version (KJV). 16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.
Philippians 3:17 King James Version (KJV) 17 Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.
Yahshua is my example; and he didn't beg me to follow him.
Yahshua

John 8:12 (KJV)
�Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.�
John 12:26 King James Version (KJV)
26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

OoopPS!
I'm going to drop my argument.
I came to know YHWH, shortly before I was about to dismiss YHWH, as just another lie that parents tell their children, like about fairies and fat bearded gnomes and bunnies.
I caught my mother in three lies in her life, one about a fairy, one about a fat magic man, and one about a bunny.....you know....to make life fun for her children.
What prompted me to believe that my mother (the most honest person I know) was lying about YHWH, was the conflicting stories and lies that I grew up hearing from the churches I attended.
Logic kicked in; and I deduced that my mother was lying to me about YHWH....you know......to teach her children moral values.
Fortunately YHWH blessed me with enough logic to take it to the next level.
GLORY TO YHWH!
I realized that the whole reason that I questioned YHWH to begin with, was because I had listened to the lies of men.
I decided to give YHWH one more chance. I decided to read the book, as it was written, from beginning to end.
I first meditated for weeks to purge my mind of everything everyone had told me about YHWH,
It didn't work. I still struggle with purging the lies about YHWH from my mind to this day.
Long story short, nearing the end of the Bible, I didn't need men, nor even the Bible anymore to tell me that YHWH is real. I knew for myself.
That said.......
Nowhere in the Bible do I see that YHWH can't be in the presence of sin.
It appears that after 35 years of searching hard for the truth; I'm still just getting past some of the lies I was told as a child.

If "God" can't be shacked to objects; what would make you believe that he would be shackled to a building that he didn't command to be built, after he let the one that he did command, to be built, be destroyed?
Be careful not to fall into idolatry.
Why would he be shackled to a building that was somehow proclaimed to be a temple, even though his first born son called it something else.
If you want to agree with Yahshua; maybe you should call it what Yahshua called it.
"Is not the canonize 66 books sufficient for our faith, by the will of GOD, and not man?"
==============================
Books sufficient for faith?
Faith preceded each of the authors, writing any of those books. Had it not; those books would have been written in vain. Put not your faith in books. That would be idolatry. Put your faith in Yahweh!
What would lead you believe that the Canon, in the form that exists, was created by the will of "GOD," and not by the will of man?
What would lead you to believe that the wills of any who might have played a part in the creation of that Canon, were necessarily, mutually exclusive?
I anxiously await your reply.
I'm sure that I'll find your answers to be very interesting.
