A rabbi is a Jewish preacher and religious leader in Judaism. A person becomes a rabbi by being ordained by another rabbi ??? known as Semikhah ??? following a course of study of Jewish history and texts, including the Tanakh, Midrash, Mishnah, Tosefta, Talmud, Halakha, and rabbinic commentaries thereon. The basic form of the rabbi developed between the Second Temple ???being heavily influenced by the Pharisees???and Rabbinic periods, when learned teachers???overlapping with the Tannaim, Amoraim, Savoraim, and early Geonim???assembled to codify Judaism's written and oral laws. The title "rabbi" was first used in the first century CE. In more recent centuries, the duties of a rabbi became increasingly influenced by the duties of the Protestant Christian minister, hence the title "pulpit rabbis." Further, in 19th-century Germany and the United States, rabbinical activities such as delivering sermons, pastoral counseling, and representing the community to the outside all increased in importance.
