==Terminology== The phrase "Midrash halakha" was first employed by [[Nachman Krochmal]],<ref>In his "Moreh Nebuke ha-Zeman," p. 163</ref> the [[Talmud]]ic expression being ''Midrash Torah'' = "investigation of the [[Torah]]".<ref>Kiddushin 49b</ref> These interpretations were often regarded as corresponding to the real meaning of the scriptural texts; thus it was held that a correct elucidation of the Torah carried with it the proof of the ''halakha'' and the reason for its existence.
