Line 14: {{Main\| History of responsa in Judaism}} {{Further\|Oral Torah\|Halakha\|Posek}} In [[rabbinic literature]], the '''Responsa''' are known as ''She'elot u-Teshuvot'' ({{lang-he-n\|שאלות ותשובות}} "questions and answers"), and comprise the body of written decisions and rulings given by [[Posek\|poskim]] ("deciders of Jewish law"). A modern term, used mainly for questions on the [[internet]], is "[[Ask the rabbi]]". Judaism's responsa constitute a special class of [[rabbinic literature]], to be distinguished from the [[Rabbinic literature#Meforshim\|commentaries]] (''meforshim'')—devoted to the exegesis of the [[Tanakh\|Hebrew Bible]], the [[Mishnah]], the [[Talmud]]—and from [[Halakha#Codes of Jewish law\|the codes of law]] which delineate the rules for ordinary incidents of life.
