N2 - So what was it then? The Yavne Generation? The Lod Generation? The Yavne and Lod Generation? It was all of the above. The name essentially stuck though with Yavne, the basically unsuccessful site chosen to establish a new center of Institutional Judaism. That was the beginning, the first step, and that was the name that stuck like glue in Jewish and Rabbinic historiography. By the end of the Yavne Generation when Lod served as the center of Judaism of all kinds, it definitely was the Lod Generation, even if Lod never was officially crowned, as it were, with the 'Generation' or 'Period' title. When all is said and done, then perhaps Yavne did indeed cheat Lod out of its 'generation'.
