Eruvin (Talmud)

Eruvin (Hebrew: עֵרוּבִין, lit. "Mixtures") is the second tractate in the Order of Moed in the Talmud, dealing with the various types of eruv. In this sense this tractate is a natural extension of Shabbat; at one point these tractates were likely joined but then split due to length.[1]
