Baraïta

Baraïta corresponds, in the rabbinical Littérature, with collections or remains of collections of contemporary rabbinical decisions of the Mishna, but which were not received in the official collection of Mishna, written by rabbi Juda, at the end of the 2nd century. From there their name of Baraïta, which means external, excluded of the code which makes authority.

Baraïta is in introduction to the Sifra (comment on the Lévitique). It contains the thirteen principles of Herméneutique written by Rabbi Ishmaël.
