===Baraita===
{{Main|Baraita}}

The traditions that the Gemara comments on are not limited to what is found in the Mishnah, but the Baraita as well (a term that broadly designates [[Oral Torah]] traditions that did not end up in the Mishnah). The ''baraitot'' cited in the Gemara are often quotations from the [[Tosefta]] (a tannaitic compendium of halakha parallel to the Mishnah) and the [[Midrash halakha]] (specifically [[Midrash#Tannaitic|Mekhilta, Sifra and Sifre]]). Some [[Baraita|''baraitot'']], however, are known only through traditions cited in the Gemara, and are not part of any other collection.<ref>David Halivni, ''Midrash, Mishnah, and Gemara: The Jewish Predilection for Justified Law'' (Cambridge MA: Harvard University Press, 2009), 93–101. {{ISBN|9780674038158}}</ref>
