Talmudic laws are those contained within the Mishnah, a written compendium of much older Jewish oral law, and the Gemara, a set of rabbinical discussions on the Mishnah laws and their applications. Mishnah laws are based on rabbinic interpretations of the Torah (Jewish bible) and seek to provide a basis for all future applications of the law. Together, the Mishnah and Gemara provide a framework and basis for all other Jewish law, known as rabbinic law, as still upheld by Beth Din Jewish courts to this day.
