Eruvin (Hebrew: עֵרוּבִין, lit. "Mixtures") is the second tractate in the Order of Moed in the Talmud, dealing with the various types of eruv. In this sense this tractate is a natural extension of Shabbat; at one point these tractates were likely joined but then split due to length.[1]

Eruvin, along with Niddah and Yevamot, is considered one of the three most difficult tractates in the Babylonian Talmud. A Hebrew mnemonic for the three is עני (ani, meaning "poverty").[2]
