ANTIPHONE

“Let our writings be open to all people. Let them see what out moral code is like! We need not be afraid of this test, for we
have a pure heart and a clean spirit. Let the nations investigate the habitations of the children of Israel, and of their own accord
convince themselves of what they are really like! They will then exclaim for certain with Balaam, when he went out to curse Israel: ‘How beautiful are thy tents O Israel: how beautiful thy homes!’
“In its attitude towards non-Jews, the Jewish religion is the most tolerant of the the religions in the world…. The precepts of the
ancient Rabbis, though inimical to Gentiles, cannot be applied in any way to Christians.”
“A whole series of opinions can be quoted from the writings of the highest Rabbinical authorities to prove that these teachers
inculcated in their own people a great love and respect for Christians, in order that they might look upon Christians, who
believe in the true God, as brothers, and pray for them.”
“We hereby declare the the Talmud does not contain anything inimical to Christians.”

PROLOGUE

Many people who are interested in the Jewish question are wont to ask whether or not there is anything in the Talmud which is not beautiful and sublime, and entirely removed from anything like hatred of Christians. The confusion of opinion about the matter is so great, that to listen to those who argue so wisely about it, you would think that they were discussing a very ancient and remote race of people, and not the people of Israel who live in our midst according to an unchanging moral code by which the religious and social life of the Jews has been regulated to this day.
This being so, I have undertaken to show what the Talmud really teaches about Christians, and thus satisfy the wishes of those who desire to find out about this doctrine from genuine original sources.
To this end I have translated the best known Talmudic books which refer to the Christians, and have arranged these sources in such order as to bring out clearly the picture of a Christian as represented to the Jews by the Talmud.
Lest I be accused of using a corrupted text of the Talmud or of not having interpreted it correctly, as is generally the case with those who have attempted to disclose secret Jewish teachings, I have placed the Hebrew text opposite the Latin.
I have divided the whole into two sections, the first of which treats of the teachings of the Talmud about Christians, and the other, the rules which Jews are obliged to follow when living among the Christians.
I preface these with a brief discussion about the Talmud itself in the following chapter.

THE TALMUD

The Talmud gets its name from the word Lamud – taught, and means The Teaching. By metonymy it is taken to mean the book which contains the Teaching, which is called Talmud, that is, the doctrinal book which alone fully expounds and explains all the knowledge and teaching of the Jewish people.
As to the origin of the Talmud, the Rabbis regard Moses as its first author. They hold that, besides the written law which Moses received from God on Mount Sinai on tables of stone, which is called Torah Schebiktab, he also received
interpretations of it, or the oral law, which is called Torah Shebeal Peh. They say that this is the reason why Moses
remained so long on the mountain, as God could have given him the written law in one day.
Moses is said to have transmitted this oral law to Joshua; Joshua in turn to the seventy Elders; the Elders to the Prophets, and the Prophets to the Great Synagogue. It is held that it was later transmitted successively to certain Rabbis until it was no longer possible to retain it orally.
Whatever may be said about this story of the Rabbis, it is sufficiently known to us that before the birth of Christ, schools existed in Palestine in which sacred literature was taught. The commentaries of the Doctors of the law were noted down on
charts and lists as an aid to memory, and these, when collected together, formed the beginnings of the Jewish Talmud.
In the second century after Christ, Rabbi Jehuda who, because of the sanctity of his life, was called The Saint, and The Prince,
realizing that the learning of the Jews was diminishing, that their oral law was being lost, and that the Jewish people were being
dispersed, was the first to consider ways and means of restoring and preserving their oral law. He collected all the lists and charts and from them he made a book which was called the Sepher Mischnaioth, or Mischnah – a Deuterosis, or secondary
law. He divided it into six parts, each of which was divided into many chapters. We shall consider these later.
The Mischnah is the foundation and the principal part of the whole Talmud. This book was accepted by the Jews everywhere and was recognized as their authentic code of law. It was expounded in their Academies in Babylon – at Sura, Iumbaditha and
Nehardea – and in their Academies in Palestine – at Tiberias, Iamnia and Lydda.
As their interpretations increased with the passing of time, the disputations and decisions of the doctors of the law concerning the Mischnah were written down, and these writings constituted another part of the Talmud called the Gemarah.
These two parts are so disposed throughout the whole Talmud that the Mischnah serves first as a kind of text of the law, and is
followed by the Gemarah as an analysis of its various opinions leading to definite decisions.
All the precepts of the Mischnah, however, were not discussed in the Jewish schools. Those whose use was nullified by the
destruction of the Temple, and those whose observation was possible only in the Holy Land were not commented upon. Their
explanation was left until the coming of Elias and the Messiah. For this reason some parts of the Mischnah are lacking in the Gemarah.
In interpreting the Mischnah of Rabbi Jehuda, the schools of Palestine and Babylon followed each their own method, and by thus following their own way gave rise to a twofold Gemarah – the Jerusalem and the Babylonian versions. The author of the Jerusalem version was Rabbi Jochanan, who was head of the synagogue in Jerusalem for eighty years. He wrote thirty-nine
chapters of commentaries on the Mischnah which he compiled in the year 230 A.D.
The Babylonian Gemarah, however, was not compiled by any one person, nor at any one time. Rabbi Aschi began it in 327
A.D and labored over it for sixty years. He was followed by Rabbi Maremar about the year 427 A.D., and it was completed by Rabbi Abina about the year 500 A.D. The Babylonian Gemarah has thirty-six chapters of interpretations.
This twofold Gemarah, added to the Mischnah, makes also a twofold Talmud: The Jerusalem version, which, on account of its
brevity and obscurity, is not much used; and the Babylonian version, which has been held in the highest esteem by Jews of all times.
The Gemarah is followed by additions called Tosephoth. It was thus that Rabbi Chaia first styled his opinions on the Mischnah
which were made by the doctors outside the schools were called Baraietoth, or extraneous opinions.
These Commentaries were further supplemented by other decisions called Piske Tosephoth, short theses and simple principles.
For nearly five hundred years after the Babylonian Talmud was completed, the study of literature was greatly hampered partly
due to public calamities and partly owing to dissensions among the scholars. But in the eleventh century others wrote further additions to the Talmud. Chief among these were the Tosephoth of Rabbi Ascher.
Besides these there appeared the Perusch of Rabbi Moische ben Maimon, called by the Jews Rambam for short, by the
Christians Maimonides, and by Rabbi Schelomo, Iarchi or Raschi.
Thus, the Mischna, Gemarah, Tosephoth, the marginal notes of Rabbi Ascher, the Piske Tosephoth and the Perusch
Hamischnaioth of Maimonides, all collected into one, constitute a vast work which is called the Talmud.

The main parts of the Talmud, which we mentioned above, are six:
I. ZERAIM: concerning seeds. It treats of seeds, fruits, herbs, trees; of the public and domestic use of fruits, of different
seeds, etc.

The complete Talmud contains 63 books in 524 chapters.
Added to these are four other shorts tracts, which have not been included in the regular Talmud. They have been added by
later writers and exponents.
These four are:

EBHEL RABBETI – a large treatise on Mourning. Has 14 chapters.
KALLAH – the Bride. On the acquisition of the bride. Has one chapter.
MASSEKHETH DEREKH ERETS – the Conduct of Lide. Divided into RABBAH – major parts, and ZUTA – the minor parts. Has 16 chapters. At the end is added a special chapter – PEREK SCHALOM – on Peace.
Since the Talmud was such a voluminous and disordered work, there was a need of a compendium which would facilitate its
study. To supply this need, therefore, Rabbi Isaac ben Jacob Alphassi, in 1032, published a Shorter Talmud, which he called
Halakhoth – Constitutions. He omitted all lengthy discussions and preserved only those parts which had to do with the practical things of life. Since this work, however, had no order to it, it was not considered of great worth.
The first to issue a well ordered work on Jewish Law was Maimonides, styled the “Eagle of the Synagogue.” In 1180 he
produced his celebrated work Miscnhah Torah – Repetition of the Law, also called Iad Chazakah – the Strong Hand. It contains four parts or volumes and 14 books and includes the whole Talmud. Maimonides also included much philosophical discussion in this work and attempted to establish many laws of his own. Because of this he was excommunicated by his people
and condemned to death. He fled to Egypt where he died in the year 1205.
In spite of this, the value of his work increased in time, and for a while an expurgated version was held in the highest esteem by the Jews. A drawback to this work is that it contains many laws which were of no value after the destruction of the Temple.
An edition of the work of Maimonides, expurgated of all his philosophical innovations and of all the old, useless laws, was edited in 1340, in strict accord with the ideas of the Rabbis, by Jacob ben Ascher, to which he gave the name Arbaa Turim
- The Four Orders, which are:
I. ORACH CHAIIM: The seeds of Life, and treats of the daily life in the home and in the Synagogue.
IORE DEAH: which teaches knowledge about foods, purifications and other religious laws.
CHOSCHEN HAMMISCHPAT: private judgments about civil and criminal laws.
EBHEN HAEZER: The Rock of Help, which treats of the laws of marriage.
Since Alphasi, Maimonides and Jacob ben Ascher disagreed on many points, which gave rise to different interpretations of the
same law, there was great need of a book which would contain short, concise solutions to controversies, and which would
supply to the Jewish people a law book worthy of the name.
Joseph Karo, a Rabbi of Palestine (born 1488, died 1577), supplied this need by his celebrated commentary on the Arbaa Turim, which he called Schulchan Arukh – the Prepared Table. Since, however, the customs of oriental Jews differed greatly
from those
of western Jews, even the Schulchan Arukh, of Joseph Karo did not suffice for Jews everywhere. And for this reason
Rabbi Mosche Isserles wrote a commentary on the Schulchan Arukh, entitled Darkhe Mosche, the Way of Moses,
which received the same acceptance in the West as the work of Joseph Karo in the East.
At the present time, the Schulchan Arukh is regarded as the obligatory Law Code of the Jews, and they use it principally in
their studies. Many commentaries have been written on each part of this book.
An important point to note is that this work has always been regarded by the Jews as holy. They have always held it, and still
hold it, as more important than the Sacred Scriptures.The Talmud itself shows this very clearly:
In the tract Babha Metsia, fol. 33a, we read:
“Those who devote themselves to reading the Bible exercise a certain virtue, but not very much; those who study the Mischnah
exercise virtue for which they will receive a reward; those, however, who take upon themselves to study the Gemarah exercise
the highest virtue.”
Likewise in the tract Sopherim XV, 7, fol. 13b:
“The Sacred Scriptures is like water, the Mischnah wine, and the Gemarah aromatic wine.
The following is a well-known and highly praised opinion in the writings of the Rabbis:
“My son, give heed to the words of the scribes rather than to the words of the law.”
The reason for this is found in the tract Sanhedrin X, 3, f.88b:
“He who transgresses the words of the scribes sins more gravely than the transgressors of the words of the law.”
Also when there are differences of opinion between the Law and the doctors, both must be taken as the words of the Lord God.
In the tract Erubhin, f.13b, where it is related that there was a difference of opinion between the two schools of Hillel and Schamai, it is concluded that:
“The words of both are the words of the living God.”
In the book Mizbeach, cap. V, we find the following opinion:
“There is nothing superior to the Holy Talmud.”
Contemporary defenders of the Talmud speak of it almost in the same way.
What Christians have thought of the Talmud is amply proved by the many edicts and decrees issued about it, by which the supreme rulers in Church and State proscribed it many times and condemned this sacred Secondary Law Code of the Jews
to the flames.
In 553 the Emperor Justinian forbade the spread of the Talmudic books throughout the Roman Empire. In the 13th century “Popes Gregory IX and Innocent IV condemned the books of the Talmud as containing every kind of vileness and
blasphemy against Christian truth, and ordered them to be burned because they spread many horrible heresies.”
Later, they were condemned by many other Roman Pontiffs – Julius III, Paul IV, Pius IV, Pius V, Gregory XIII, Clement VIII,
Alexander VII, Benedict XIV, and by others who issued new editions of the Index of Forbidden Books according to the orders of the Fathers of the Council of Trent, and even in our own time.
At the beginning of the 16th century, when the peace of the Church was disturbed by new religions, the Jews began to distribute the Talmud openly, aided by the art of printing then recently invented. The first printed edition of the whole Talmud, containing all its blasphemies against the Christian religion, was published in Venice in the year 1520. And almost all Jewish
books published in that century, which was favorable to them, are complete and genuine.
Towards the end of the 16th century and at the beginning of the 17th, when many famous men undertook diligently to study the
Talmud, the Jews, fearing for themselves, began to expunge parts of the Talmud which was published at Basle in 1578 has
been mutilated in many places.And at Synod in Poland, in the year 1631, the Rabbis of Germany and many other countries declared that nothing which would
annoy the Christians and cause persecution of Israel, should be printed. For this reason there are signs of many things missing in
the Jewish books which were published in the following century and thereafter. The Rabbis explain from memory what these
things mean, for they possess the genuine books which Christians rarely see.
However, Jewish books were published later with very few mutilations in Holland – where the Jews who were expelled from Spain were kindly received. The Talmud published there in 1644 – 1648 is almost similar to the Venetian edition.
The latest device invented to deceive the censors was to insert the word haiah (was) with the genuine text, as if to indicate that the matter in question once had its place there. But by so doing they only cleanse the outside of the cup. For in many places
they do show what they mean, ex.gr. by the words gam attah, “even now,” viz. “this law obliges”; and aphilu bazzeman
hazzeh, “even to this day” viz. “this law holds,” and such like.
We must add a few remarks about that other very well known book of the Jews, called the ZOHAR.
According to some Rabbis, Moses, after he had been instructed in the interpretation of the law on Mount Sinai, did not pass
this information to Joshua nor he to the Elders, but to Aaron, Aaron to Eleazer, and so on until the oral teachings had been put
into book form called the ZOHAR, so called from the name ZEHAR, meaning to shine forth. For it is an illustration of the
books of Moses, a commentary on the Pentateuch.
The author is said to have been R. Schimeon ben Jochai, a disciple of R. Akibha who, fifty years after the destruction of the Temple, ended his life as a martyr about the year 120 A.D. in Hadrian’s war against the Jews. Since, however, names of men
appear in this book who lived many centuries after the year indicated, and since neither Rambam (R. Mosche ben Nachman),
nor R. Ascher, who died about the year 1248 A.D., make no mention of it, it is more likely that those are nearer the truth who
say that the book of Zohar first saw the light about the 13th century. Especially is this considered likely since about this time a
book was produced which is similar in argument and style to the Chaldaic type of writing.
It consists of three volumes in large octavo.
Many other works have been published by the Jewish teachers which are used in the study of Jewish law, and which are held in
high esteem since they explain many obscure passages in the Talmud. Some of them are cited in this book, and are as follows:
BAR – Declaration, elucidation, Commentary on another Commentary. These declarations differ from one another.
HALAKOTH – usually written HILKHOTH – Decisions or Dissertations. Separate books of Holy Scriptures and of the Talmud by different Rabbis: Maimonides, Beshai, Edels, Moses of Kotzen, Kimchi and others. In most cases citations are

In preparing this booklet I have used the following source material:
The TALMUD. Edition of Amsterdam, 1644-48, in 14 volumes.
SCHULKHAN ARUKH, by Rabbi Joseph Karo. Edition of Venice, 1594. Without commentaries.
IORE DEAH. Numerous quotations. Edition of Krakow.
ZOHAR. Edition of Amsterdam, 1805. 3 volumes.

HILKHOTH AKUM, of R. Maimonides, edition by Vossius, 1675
As auxillary works I have used:
JOANNES BUXDORFIUS. a Lexicon Chaldaicum, Talmudicum et Rabbinicum, Base, 1640. b. De Abreviaturis Hebraicis;
Operis Talmudis Recensio; Biblicothea Rabbinica. Basle, 1712. c. Synagoga Judaica. Basle, 1712.
JOH. CHRISTOPHORI WAGENSEILII, Sota. Aldtorfi Noricum, 1674.GEORGII ELIEZ EDZARDI: Tractatus talmudici “AVODA SARA.” Hamburg, 1705.

AUGUST ROHLING: Die Polemik und das Manschenopfer des Rabbinismus. (The Polemics and Human Sacrifice of Rabbinism).Paderborn, 1883.
I have only used the works of those who are held in the highest esteem by the Jews themselves, and to whom the Jews appeal
when disputing with Christians, by quoting impartially the opinions of these learned men. Their great dilligence in quoting from the texts of books which I was able to examine, has been a proof to me that I used the same diligence even in quoting from
less known sources to which they have much greater access than I.

7. Nokhtrim – strangers, foreigners. This name is used for all who are not Jews, and therefor for Christians.
8. Amme Haarets – People of the earth, idiots. There are some who say that people of other races are not meant by this, but
only crude and uneducated people. There are passages, however, which leave no doubt about the matter. In the Holy
Scripture, Book of Esra, ch. X, 2, we read: We have sinned against our God, and have taken strange wives [nokhrioth] of the
people of the earth. That people of the earth denotes idolators is clear from Zohar, I, 25a: “The People of the earth – Obhde
Abhodah Zarah, idolaters.
9. Basar Vedam – Flesh and blood; carnal men who are destined to perdition and who can have no communion with God.
That Christians are flesh and blood, is proved from the prayer book:
“Whoever meets a wise and educated Christian can say: Blessed art thou O Lord, King of the Universe, who dispenseth of thy
wisdom to Flesh and Blood,” etc.
Likewise in another prayer, in which they ask God soon to restore the kingdom of David and to send Elias and the Messia,
etc., they aak him to take away their poverty so that they will have no need to accept gifts from “flesh and blood,” nor to trade with them, nor to seek wages from them.
10. Apikorosim – Epicureans. All are called by this name who do not observe God’s precepts, as well as all those, even Jews
themselves, who express private judgments in matters of faith. How much more, therefore, Christians!
11. Kuthim – Samaritans. But since there are no longer any Samaritans, and since there are many references in recent Jewish
books to Samaritans, who can doubt that this does not mean the Christians?
Furthermore, in this matter of naming those who are not Jews, it is to be particularly noted that Jewish writings apply these
names indiscriminately and promiscuously when they speak of the same thing, and almost in the same words. For instance, in the Tract Abhodah Zarah (25b) the word Goi is employed, but in the Schulkhan Arukh (Iore Dea 153, 2) Akum is used.
Kerithuth (6b) uses Goim; Jebhammoth (61a) uses Akum; Abhodah Zar. (2a) uses Obhde Elilim; Thoseph uses Goim
and Obhde Ab., Choschen Ham (Venetian ed.) uses Kuthi; (Slav. ed.) Akum. And many more instances could be quoted.
Maimonides in his book on Idolatry indiscriminately calls all the following idolators: Goim, Akum, Obhde Kokhabhim, Obhde
Elilim, etc.
Article II. – What the Talmud Teaches About Christians
In the preceding chapter we saw what the Jews think of the Founder of the Christian religion, and how much they despise his
name. This being so, it would not be expected that they would have any better opinion about those who follow Jesus the
Nazarene. In fact, nothing more abominable can be imagined than what they have to say about Christians. They say that they
are idolaters, the worst kind of people, much worse than the Turks, murderers, fornicators, impure animals, like dirt, unworthy
to be called men, beasts in human form, worthy of the name of beasts, cows, asses, pigs, dogs, worse than dogs; that they
propagate after the manner of beasts, that they have diabolic origin, that their souls come from the devil and return to the devil
in hell after death; and that even the body of a dead Christian is nothing different from that of an animal.
1. IDOLATERS

Since Christians follow the teachings of that man, whom the Jews regard as a Seducer and an Idolater, and since they worship
him as God, it clearly follows that they merit the name of idolater, in no way different from those among whom the Jews lived
before the birth of Christ, and whom they taught should be exterminated by every possible means.
This is best demonstrated by the names they give Christians, and by the unmistakable words of Maimonides which prove that
all who bear the name of Christian are idolaters. And anyone who examines Jewish books which speak of the “Worshippers of
the Stars and Planets,” “Epicureans,” “Samaritans,” etc., cannot but conclude that these idolaters are none other than Christians.
The Turks are always called “Ismaelites,” never idolaters.
2. CHRISTIANS WORSE THAN THE TURKS
Maimonides in Hilkoth Maakhaloth (ch. IX) says:
“It is not permitted to drink the wine of a stranger who becomes a convert, that is, one who accepts the seven precepts of
Noah, but is permitted to gain some benefit from it. It is allowed to leave wine alone with him, but not to place it before him.
The same is permitted in the case of all gentiles who are not idolaters, such as the Turks [Ismaelites]. A Jew, however, is not
permitted to drink their wine, although he may use it to his own advantage.”
3. MURDERERS

In Abhodah Zarah (22a) it says:
“A Jew must not associate himself with gentiles because they are given to the shedding of blood.”
Likewise in Iore Dea (153, 2):
“An Israelite must not associate himself with the Akum [Christians] because they are given to the shedding of blood.”
In the Abhodah Zarah (25b) it says:
“The Rabbis taught: If a Goi joins an Israelite on the road, he [the Jew] should walk on his right side. Rabbi Ismael, the son of
Rabbi Jochanan the nephew of Beruka, says: if he carries a sword, let the Jew walk on his right side. If the Goi carries a stick,
the Jew should walk on his left side. If he is climbing a hill or descending a steep incline, the Jew must not go in front with the
Goi behind, but the Jew must go behind and the Goi in front, nor must he stoop down in front of him for fear the Goi might
crack his skull. And if he should ask the Jew how far he is going, he should pretend he is going a long way, as Jacob our Father
said to the impious Esau: until I come to my Lord in Seir (Gen. XXXIII, 14-17), but it adds: Jacob set out for Sukoth.”
In Orach Chaiim (20, 2) it says:
“Do not sell your overcoat (Talith) with the fringes to an Akum, lest he should join up with a Jew on the road and kill him. It is
also forbidden to exchange or lend your overcoat with a Gentile, except for a short time and when there is nothing to be feared
from him.”

4. FORNICATORS

In the Abhodah Zarah (15b) it says:
“Animals of the masculine sex must not be left in the barns of the Gentiles with their men, nor animals of the feminine sex with
their women; much less must animals of the feminine sex be left with their men and of the masculine sex with their women. Nor
must sheep be left to the care of their shepherds; nor must any intercourse be had with them; nor must children be given into
their care to learn to read or to learn a trade.”
In the same tract a little farther on (22a) it is explained why animals must not be allowed in the barns of Gentiles, and why Jews
are not permitted to have sexual intercourse with them:
“Animals must not be allowed to go near the Goim, because they are suspected of having intercourse with them. Nor must
women cohabit with them because they are over-sexed.”
In fol. 22b of the same book the reason is given why animals especially of the feminine sex must be kept away from their
women: “…because when Gentile men come to their neighbors’ houses to commit adultery with their wives and do not find them
at home, they fornicate with the sheep in the barns instead. And sometimes even when their neighbors’ wives are at home, they
prefer to fornicate with the animals; for they love the sheep of the Israelites more than their own women.”
It is for the same reason that animals are not to be entrusted to Goi shepherds, nor children to their educators.
5. UNCLEAN

The Talmud gives two reasons why the Goim are unclean: because they eat unclean things, and because they themselves have
not been cleansed (from original sin) on Mount Sinai. In Schabbath, (145b) it says:
“Why are the Goim unclean? Because they eat abominable things and animals that crawl on their belly.”
Likewise in Abhodah Zarah, 22b:
“Why are the Goim unclean? Because they were not present at Mount Sinai. For when the serpent entered into Eve he infused
her with uncleanness. But the Jews were cleansed from this when they stood on Mount Sinai; the Goim, however, who were
not on Mount Sinaim were not cleansed.”
6. COMPARED TO DUNG

“When ten persons are praying together in one place and they say Kaddisch, or Kedoschah, anyone, even though he does not
belong there, may respond Amen. There are some, however, who say that no dung or Akum must be present.”
In Iore Dea (198, 48.) Hagah, it says:
“When Jewish women come out of a bath they must take care to meet a friend first, and not something unclean or a Chrsitian.
For if so, a woman, if she wants to keep holy, should go back and bathe again.”
It is worthy of note that the following list of unclean things is a given in Biur Hetib, a commentary on the Schulchan Arukh:
“A woman must wash herself again if she sees any unclean things, such as a dog, an ass, or People of the Earth; a Christian
(Akum), a camel, a pig, a horse, and a leper.
7. NOT LIKE MEN, BUT BEASTS

In Kerithuth (6b p. 78.) it says:
“The teaching of the Rabbis is: He who pours oil over a Goi, and over dead bodies is freed from punishment. This is true for an
animal because it is not a man. But how can it be said that by pouring oil over a Goi one is freed from punishment, since a Goi
is also a man? But this is not true, for it is written: Ye are my flock, the flock of my pasture are men (Ezechiel, XXXIV, 31).
You are thus called men, but the Goim are not called men.”
In the Tract Makkoth (7b) he is said to be guilty of killing “except when, if intending to kill an animal he kills a man by mistake,
or intending to kill a Goi, he kills an Israelite.”
In Orach Chaiim (225, 10) it says:
“He who sees beautiful creatures, even though it be an Akum or an animal, let him say ‘Blessed art thou Our Lord God, King of
the Universe, who has placed such things on the earth!’”
8. THEY DIFFER ONLY IN FORM FROM BEASTS

In Midrasch Talpioth (fol. 225d) it says:
“God created them in the form of men for the glory of Israel. But Akum were created for the sole end of ministering unto them
[the Jews] day and night. Nor can they ever be relieved from this service. It is becoming to the son of a king [an Israelite] that
animals in their natural form, and animals in the form of human beings should minister unto him.”
We can quote here also what is said in Orach Chaiim, 57, 6a:
“If pigs are to be pitied when they suffer from disease, because their intestines are similar to ours, how much more should the
Akum be pitied when thus affected.”
9. ANIMALS

In Zohar, II, (64b) it says:
“…People who worship idols, and who are called cow and ass, as it is written: I have a cow and an ass…”
Rabbi Bechai, in his book Kad Hakkemach, ch. I, beginning with the word Geulah – redemption – referring to Psalm 80, v.13:
The boar out of the wood doth waste it, says:
“The letter ain is dropped [suspended] the same as these worshippers are followers of him who was suspended.”
Buxtorf (Lex.) says:
“By wild pig the author here means the Christians who eat pork and, like pigs, have destroyed the vineyard of Israel, the City of
Jerusalem, and who believe in the ’suspended’ Christ. Else the letter ain is dropped in this word because they, as worshippers
of Christ who was hanged, are also dropped.”
Rabbi Edels, in commenting on Kethuboth (110b) says:
“The Psalmist compares the Akum to the unclean beast in the woods.”
10. WORSE THAN ANIMALS

Rabbi Schelomo Iarchi (Raschi), famous Jewish commentator, explaining the law of Moses (Deuter. XIV, 21) forbidding the
eating of meat of wounded animals, but which must be given to the ’stranger in thy gates,’ or which, according to Exodus
(XXII, 30) is to be thrown to the dogs, has this to say:
“…for he is like a dog. Are we to take to word ‘dog’ here literally? By no means. For the text in speaking of dead bodies says,
Or thou mayest sell it to an alien. This applies much more to the meat of wounded animals, for which it is permitted to
accept payment. Why therefore does the Scripture say it may be thrown to ‘dogs?’ In order to teach you that a dog is to be
more respected than the Nokhri.”

11. THEY PROPAGATE LIKE BEASTS

In the Sanhedrin (74b) Tosephoth, it says:
“The sexual intercourse of a Goi is like that of a beast.”
And in Kethuboth (3b) it says:
“The seed of a Goi is worth the same as that of a beast.”
Hence it is to be inferred that Christian marriage is not true marriage.
In Kidduschim (68a), it says:
“…How do we know this? Rabbi Huna says: You can read: Remain here with the ass, that is, with a people like an ass. Hence
it appears that they are not capable of contracting marriage.”
And in Eben Haezer (44, 8 .. ) ;
“If a Jew enters into marriage with an Akum (Christian), or with his servant, the marriage is null. For they are not capable of
entering into matrimony. Likewise if an Akum or a servant enter into matrimony with a Jew, the marriage is null.”
In Zohar (II, 64b) it says:
“Rabbi Abba says: If only idolaters alone had sexual intercourse, the world would not continue to exist. Hence we are taught
that a Jew should not give way to those infamous robbers. For if these propagate in greater numbers, it will be impossible for us
to continue to exist because of them. For they give birth to sucklings the same as dogs.”

12. CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL

In Zohar (I, 28b) we read:
“Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field, etc. (Genes. III, 1.) ‘More subtle’ that is towards evil; ‘than all
beasts’ that is, the idolatrous people of the earth. For they are the children of the ancient serpent which seduced Eve.”
The best argument used by the Jews to prove that Christians are of the race of the devil is the fact that they are uncircumcized.
The foreskin on non-Jews prevents them from being called the children of the Most High God. For by circumcision the name of
God – Schaddai – is complete in the flesh of a circumcized Jew. The form of the letter Isch is in his nostrils, the letter Daleth in
his (bent) arm, and ain appears in his sexual organ by circumcision. In non-circumcized gentiles, therefore, such as Christians,
there are only two letters, Isch and Daleth, which make the word Sched, which means devil. They are, therefore, children of
the Sched, the devil.

13. THE SOULS OF CHRISTIANS ARE EVIL AND UNCLEAN

The teaching of the Jews is that God created two natures, one good and the other evil, or one nature with two sides, one clean
and the other unclean. From the unclean side, called Keliphah – rind, or scabby crust – the souls of Christians are said to have
come. In Zohar (I, 131a) it says:
“idolatrous people, however, since they exist, befoul the world, because their souls come out of the unclean side.”
And in Emek Hammelech (23d) it says:
“The souls of the impious come from Keliphah, which is death and the shadows of death.”
Zohar (I, 46b, 47a) goes to show that this unclean side is the left side, from which the souls of the Christians come:
“And he created every living thing, that is, the Israelites, because they are the children of the Most High God, and their holy
souls come out from Him. But where do the souls of the idolatrous gentiles come from? Rabbi Eliezer says: from the left side,
which makes their souls unclean. They are therefore all unclean and they pollute all who come in contact with them.”

14. AFTER DEATH THEY GO DOWN TO HELL

The Elders teach that Abraham sits at the gate of Gehenna and prevents any circumcized person from entering there; but that all
the uncircumcized go down to hell.
In Rosch Haschanach (17a) it says:
“Heretics and Epicureans and Traitors go down into hell.”

15. THE FATE OF DEAD CHRISTIANS

The bodies of Christians after death are called by the odious name of Pegarim, which is the word used in Holy Scripture for the
dead bodies of the damned and of animals, but never for the pious dead who are called Metim. Thus the Schulchan Arukh
orders that a dead Christian must be spoken of in the same way as a dead animal.
In Iore Dear (377, 1) it says:
“Condolences must not be offered to anyone on account of the death of his servants or handmaids. All that may be said is ‘May
God restore your lost one, the same as we say to a man who has lost a cow or an ass.’”
Nor must Christians be avoided for seven days after they have buried someone, as the law of Moses commands, since they
are not men; for the burial of an animal does not pollute one.
In Iebhammoth (61a) it says:
“The Nokhrim are not rendered unclean by a burial. For it is said: Ye are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture; ye are men.
You are thus called men, but not the Nokhrim.”
Article III. – About Christian Rites and Worship
Since Christians are regarded by the Jews as idolators, all their forms of worship are idolatrous. Their priests are called priests
of Baal; their temples are called houses of lies and idolatry, and everything they contain, such as chalices, statues and books,
are regarded as made for the serving of idols; their prayers, both private and public, are sinful and offensive to God; and their
festivals are called days of evil.

1. PRIESTS

The Talmud speaks of priests, the ministers of Christian worship, as idolatrous and belonging to the god Baal. They are also
called Komarim – Soothsayers; and also Galachim, the shaved, because they shave their heads, particularly the monks.
In Abhodah Zarah (14b) Toseph, it says:
“It is forbidden to sell books of the prophets to the soothsayers, since they may use them for their evil worship in their
idolatrous temples. Those who do so sin against the law which forbids us to place an obstacle in the way of a blind person. It
is also forbidden to sell them to a Christian who is not shaved, for he is sure to give or sell them to one of them who is shaved.”
2. CHRISTIAN CHURCHES
A place of Christian worship is called (1) Beth Tilfah, a house of vanity and foolishness, in place of Beth Tefilah, a house of
prayer; (2) Beth Abhodha Zarah, a House of Idolatry; (3) Beth Hatturapi Schel Letsim, a house of Evil Laughter.
In Abhodah Zarah (78.) the Perusch of Maimonides, it says:
“Be it known to you that it is beyond a doubt forbidden by law to pass through a Christian city in which there is a house of
vanity, that is, a house of idolatry; much more to live therein. But we today, as punishment for our sins, are subject to them, and
are forced to live in their countries, as it was foretold in Deuteronomy (IV, 28…): And there ye shall serve gods, the work of
men’s hands, of wood and stone…Thus if it is allowed as predicted to pass around a Christian city, much more so must we
pass around an idolatrous temple; nor is it allowed us even to look inside and above all to enter in.”
A Jew is forbidden not only to enter a Christian church, but even to go near it, except under certain circumstances.
In Iore Dea (142, 10) it says:
“It is forbidden to stand in the shadow of a house of idolatry, whether from the inside or the outside, for a distance of four
cubits from the front door. It is not forbidden, however, to stand under the shadows of the back of a church. Nor is the
shadow forbidden us if the church stands in a place where formerly there was public road, which was taken from the
community and the house of idolatry built upon it. For the road is still there. But if the house of idolatry existed before the road,
it is not permitted to pass before it. There are some who say that it is forbidden to pass there in any case.”
Neither is a Jew allowed to listen to, or admire the beautiful music of the churches. In Iore Dea (142, 15) it says:
“It is forbidden to listen to the music if idolatrous worship, and to examine the statues of their idols; for even by looking at them
one can be influenced by the evil of idolatry. But one can look who does not intend to be so affected.”

Likewise a Jew is not allowed to have a house near a church; nor is he allowed to rebuild a house which has been destroyed in
such a place. In Iore Dea (143, 1) it says:
“If a house near an idolatrous temple belonging to the Akum falls down, it must not be rebuilt. A Jew must remove it a certain
distance away if he wishes to rebuild it. But he must fill up the vacant space between his house and the church with bushes and
rubbish so that the space will not be used to extend the idolatrous temple.”
Here may be added what a certain Rabbi Kelomimus said about a Christian church (in the book Nizzachon) to the Emperor
Henry III, who gave him permission to speak his opinion freely about the Basilica which he had recently built at Spires:
“After the Emperor Henry III, a very wicked man, had completed the building of that “Abyss,” he sent for Rabbi Kelominus and said to him: “I want to ask you, how does this Basilica which I have built compare with the magnificence of Solomon’s
Temple, about which so many volumes have been written?” He replied: ‘My Lord, if you will permit me that you will let me go
unharmed, I will tell you the truth about it.’ The Emperor answered: ‘I give you my word as a lover of the truth and as an
Emperor, that no harm shall come to you.’ Then the Jew said: ‘If you gathered together all you have spent so far, and added to
it all the silver and gold in your treasury, it would not suffice even to pay the workmen and craftsmen that Solomon employed; for it is written (Chron. II, ch 2): And Solomon told out threescore and ten thousand men to bear burdens, and fourscore
thousand to hew in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them. Eight years were spent in the
building of the Temple, much more than you spent in building this Tehon [Abyss]. And when Solomon had finished his Temple,
see what the Scripture says about it: The priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud; for the glory of God
had filled the House of the Lord (Chron. II, Ch. 5, 14). But if someone loaded an ass with putrid garbage and led it into this
abyss of yours, no one would notice the difference!’ The Emperor Henry then replied: ‘Were it not that I have sworn to let you
go unharmed, I would order your head cut off.’”
3. CHALICES
Chalises used in the Sacrifice of the mass are spoken of as vessels in which filth is offered up to the idol. Moses Kozzensis, in
Hilkoth Abhodah Zarah (10b) says:
“A Jew who buys Chalises of the Goi, which are broken and thrown away, it is not permitted to sell them again to them,
because their priest of Baal will use them in the worship of the idol.”
4. BOOKS
The Talmud calls the books of the Christians Minim – heretical books – Siphre Debeth Abidan – Books of the House of
Perdition. The Talmud in particular speaks of the books of the Gospels. Thus in Schabbath (116a) Toseph:
“Rabbi Meir calls heretical books Aaven Gilaion (volumes of iniquity) because the call them Gospels.”
And Rabbi Jochanan calls these books Aavon Gilaion, evil books. The Schulchan Arukh, Crakow edition, gives this name
as Aven Niktabh al Haggilaion – iniquity written in a book.
Buxtorf says: “In the Arukh there is a note Scheker Niktabh al Gilaion, which means, a lie written in a book.”
All the Talmudists agree that the books of the Christians should be destroyed. They differ only as to what should be done with
the names of God contained in them. In Schabbath (116a) it says:
“The Glossaries of our own books and the books of the heretics are not to be saved from the flames, if they should catch fire
on the Sabbath day. Rabbi Jose, however, says: ‘On festival days the divine names should be torn out of the books of the Christians and hidden away; what remains must be given to the flames.’ But Rabbi Tarphon says: ‘In order that I may be
remembered by my children, if those books should ever fall into my hands I would burn them together with the divine names
contained therein. For if one is chased by an assassin, or by a serpent, it would be better to take refuge in a pagan temple than
in one of theirs; because the Christians knowingly resist the truth, whereas the pagans do so unknowingly.”
5. PRAYERS
Christian prayers are called, not Tefillah, but Tiflah. They change the point and insert Iod, which makes it read to mean sin,
foolishness and transgression.
6. CHRISTIAN FESTIVALS
Christian festivals, especially Sunday, are called Ion Ed – day of destruction, perdition, misfortune or calamity. They are also
simply called Iom Notsri – Christian Days. The word Ed rightly interpreted means misfortune or calamity, as appears from the
Gemarah and the Glossaries of Maimonides in Abhodah Zarah (2a):
“The word Edehem means the festivals of the Christians, since it is written (in Deuter. XXXII, 35): the day of their calamity.”
Maimonides also says in Abhodah Zarah (78c):
“The words Edehem means the foolishness of their festivlas. It is the name for their despicable feast days which do not merit
the name of Moedim, for they are really vain and evil.”
Baretenora also writes:
“The word Edehem is the name for their ignominious festivals and solemnities.”
The marginal notes of Tosephtoth also give this name to Christian festivals. Thus in Abhodah Zarah (6a):
“The Day of Evil, that is the Christian Day, is forbidden to us as well as all their other feast days.”
Some Christian festivals are mentioned by name, such as the feast of Christmas and Easter. Moses Mikkozzi, referring to the
above text of Abhodah Zarah , says:
“Rabbi Sammuel declares, in the name of Solomon Iarchi, that in particular the festivals of Christmas and Easter, which are their
principal evil days and the foundation of their religion, are forbidden to us.”
Maimonides, in hilkoth Akum (ch. IX) has the same:
“Sammuel repeats the words of Rabbi Sal. Iarchi which forbid us particularly to celebrate the feasts of Christmas and Easter,
which are celebrated on account of him who was hanged.”
Furthermore, indications of the impiety of the Jews are to be found in the names which they give to these Christian festivals: For in place of using Tau in the word Nithal, they often write Tet and call it Nital for the Latin word Natalis, the Feast of the
Nativity. They make it appear as if this word were from the root Natal which connotes extermination or destruction. Likewise
they refuse to use the word Paschal (Pesach) for the Christian feast of Easter. The substitute Koph for Phe and insert the letter
iod and call it Ketsach or Kesach. Both pronunciations have an evil meaning. Ketsach is from the root Katsah, meaning to
amputate or cut off from, and Kesach is from the root Kesa, meaning to wood or a gallows. This is done because the feast of
Easter is celebrated by Christians in memory of Christ – the one who was hanged – who was put to death and who rose again from the dead.

PART TWO

PRECEPTS OF THE

TALMUD

CONCERNING CHRISTIANS
From what has been shown thus far, it is clear that, according to the teaching of the Talmud,
Christians are idolaters and hateful to Jews.
As a consequence, every Jew who wishes to please God has a duty to observe all the precepts
which were given to the Fathers of their race when they lived in the Holy Land concerning the idolatrous
gentiles, both those who lived amongst them and those in nearby countries.
A Jew is therefore required to
(1) To avoid Christians;
(2) To do all he can to exterminate them.

CHAPTER I
CHRISTIANS MUST BE AVOIDED

Jews are required to avoid all contact with Christians for four reasons: (1) Because they are not worthy to share in the
Jewish way of life; (2) Because they are unclean; (3) Because they are idolators; (4) Because they are murderers.
Article I. – Christians Must Be Avoided – Because They Are Unworthy to Share Jewish Customs
A Jew, by the fact that he belongs to the chosen people and is circumcized, possesses so great a dignity that no one, not
even an angel, can share equality with him. In fact, he is considered almost the equal of God. “He who strikes an Israelite”
says Rabbi Chanina “acts as if he slaps the face of God’s Divine Majesty.”
A Jew is always considered good, in spite of certain sins which he may commit; nor can his sins contaminate him, any more
than dirt contaminates the kernel in a nut, but only soils its shell. A Jew alone is looked upon as a man; the whole world is
his and all things should serve him, especially “animals which have the form of men.”
Thus it is plain that they regard all contact with Christians as contaminating and as detracting from their dignity. They are
therefore required to keep as far away as possible from all who live and act as Christians do.
1. A JEW MUST NOT SALUTE A CHRISTIAN
In Gittin (62a) it says:
“A Jew must not enter the home of a Nokhri on a feast day to offer him greetings. However, if he meets him on the street,
he may offer him a greeting, but curtly and with head bowed.”
2. A JEW MUST NOT RETURN THE GREETINGS OF A CHRISTIAN
In Iore Dea (148, 10) it says:
“A Jew must not return the greeting of a Christian by bowing before him. It is good, therefore, to salute him first and so
avoid having to answer him back if the Akum salutes him first.”
Rabbi Kohana says that when a Jew salutes a Christian he should say “Peace to my Lord,” but intend this for his own
Rabbi. For the Tosephtoth says: “For his heart was turned towards his own Rabbi.”
3. A JEW MUST NOT GO BEFORE A CHRISTIAN JUDGE
In Choschen Hammischpat (26,1) it says:
“A Jew is not permitted to bring his case before Akum judges, even if the matter is judged by the decisions of Jewish law,
and even if both parties agree to abide by such decisions. He who does so is impious and similar to one who calumniates
and blasphemes, and who raises his hand against the Law given us by Moses, our great law-giver. Hagah says ‘The
Bethin has the power to excommunicate such a one until he releases his Jewish brother from the hands of the Gentile.’”
4. A CHRISTIAN CANNOT BE USED AS A WITNESS
In Choschen Ham. (34, 19) it says:
“A Goi or a servant is not capable of acting as a witness.”
5. A JEW CANNOT EAT CHRISTIAN FOOD
In Iore Dea (112, 1) it says:
“The Elders forbade the eating of the bread of the Akum, lest we would seem to be familiar with them.”
And in Abhodah arah (35b) it says:
“The following things belonging to the Goim are forbidden: Milk which a Goi takes from a cow, in the absence of a Jew;
also their bread, etc.”
6. A JEW MUST NEVER ACT IN ANY WAY LIKE A CHRISTIAN
In Iore Dea (178, 1) it says:
“It is not permitted to imitate the customs of the Akum, nor to act like them. Nor is it permitted to wear clothes like the
Akum, not to comb the hair as they do…neither must Jews build houses that look like temples of the Akum.”
Since, however, it is not possible to observe all these rules in every place, the Hagah says that they can be overlooked to
a certain extent when, for instance, it is to the advantage of the Jew to do so; for example, if a Jew would profit by a trade
which requires a certain kind of dress.
Article II. – Christians Are to Be Avoided – Because They Are Unclean
It is not known how often Jews must wash and purify themselves, nor how much they must study to avoid everything
which might render them unclean. The Talmud teaches, however, that Christians are people whose touch alone makes
things unclean. In Abhodah Zarah (72b) it says:
“A certain man was pouring wine from one jar into another by means of a tube, when a Goi came along and touched
the tube with his hand. As a result all the wine (in both jars) had to be thrown away.”
Every vessel, therefore, must be washed which comes into the possession of a Jew from a Christian, although it has never
been in use. In Iore Dea (120, 1) it says:
“If a Jew buys a vessel for use at table from an Akum, whether it is made of metal, glass or lead, even if it is new, he must
wash it in a Mikvah [a large basin], or in a cistern which holds forty quarts of water.

Article III. – Christians Are to Be Avoided – Because They Are Idolaters
1. Lest a Jew be the occasion of sin to the idolatrous Christians, according to the precept in Levit. XIX, 14: “Do not put a
stumbling-block before the blind – he must avoid all contact with them on the days when they worship their gods. In
Abhodah Zarah
(2a) it says:
“For three days before their idolatrous festivals it is not permitted to buy or sell them anything. It is also forbidden to give
or take any help from them, to change any money with them, to pay them back any debts or allow them to pay back debts.”
In the Abhodah Zarah, 78c (the Perusch of Maimonides, fol.
8…) it says:
“All the festivals of the followers of Jesus are forbidden, and we must conduct ourselves towards them as we would towards
idolators. The first day of the week is their principal feast, and it is therefore forbidden to do any business whatsoever with
those who believe in Jesus on their Sabbath. We must observe the same rules on their Sabbath as we do on the feastdays
of idolators, as the Talmud teaches.”
2. A JEW MUST NOT USE ANYTHING WHICH PERTAINS TO THE WORSHIP OF CHRISTIANS
In Iore Dea (139, 1) it says:
“It is forbidden to have anything to do with idols and everything that is used in their form of worship, whether they are made
by the Akum or by Jews.”

3. IT IS FORBIDDEN TO SELL TO

CHRISTIANS ANYTHING CONNECTED WITH THEIR IDOLATROUS WORSHIP

The Abhodah Zarah (14b, Toseph) says:
“It is always forbidden to sell incense to an idolatrous priest, for it is evident that when he asks for it he wants it for no other
purpose but to offer it before his idol. Anyone, therefore, who would sell it to him sins against the precept which forbids
us to place a stumbling-block before the blind. It is also forbidden to sell candles to gentiles for their Feat of Candles.
Candles however may be sold to them on other days. Neither is it permitted to sell a chalice to a gentile which a Jew has
bought after a Goi has broken it and thrown it away. It may only be sold again to a gentile after it has been completely made
over. For after it has been broken just once it can be used still to hold the wine which is offered in honor of their idol.” Then
follows the prohibition as to the selling of books to Christian priests, as we have seen above. Even the work of binding such
books is forbidden to a Jew. In Iore Dea (139, 15) it says:
“It is forbidden to bind the books of the Akum, with the exception of law books. It may be done, however, if refusal to do
so should cause enmity, but only after every effort has been made to refuse such work.”
Likewise in Iore Dea (151, 1, Hagah):
“It is not permitted to sell water to an Akum if it is known that it will be made into Baptismal water.”
Mention is also made of many other things which it is forbidden to sell to Christians, such as: cloth from which priestly
vestments and banners may be made; paper and ink which may be used for writing books pertaining to their divine worship.
It is forbidden to sell, or even to rent, houses to Christians which will be used by them as a place of worship. Nowadays,
however, Jews trade with Christians, especially on Christian feast days, and also sell them houses knowing full well that
certain Sacraments will be administered therein, such as Baptism, Holy Communion and Extreme Unction. The Talmud can
give no reason for this, and in the Abhodah Zarah (2a, Toseph) it says:
“It is difficult to say by what right Jews nowadays trade with the Goim on their (evil) feast days. For although many of them
commit all kinds of licentious acts and perversions on their feast days in honor of saints which they do not look upon as
gods, yet every week they celebrate the Day of the Nazarene [Sunday] which has always been forbidden to us.”
Bartenora, however, in his commentary on Abhodah Zarah (I, 2, fol. 7b) it says:
“Since, while we are in captivity, we cannot live without trading with them, and we depend upon them for our food and we
must fear them, it is only forbidden to trade with them on their feast days. Furthermore, it is permitted nowadays to trade
with them on the actual day of their feasts, because the Rabbis are convinced that they do not worship their idols just
because they trade with us. And what is forbidden in this book must be taken as applying directly to idolatry.”
Rabbi Tam, however, contends that the Mischnah only forbids the selling of things to idolaters which will be used by them
in the worship of idols, since they rejoice and worship their idols because they obtain the things necessary for that worship.
He explains it thus (in Abhodah Zarah, 2a, Toseph):
“No one should wonder at this custom of ours. For, although we look upon them as idolaters, they can only offer up what
they buy for money. Hence, our gain and their joy is not the reason for this prohibition, for they have enough money for
these things, even if we did not trade with them.”
4. THIS PROHIBITION DOES NOT APPLY TO ATHEISTS
In Iore Dea (148, 5) it says:
“It is only permitted to send a gift to an Akum on one of their feast days if it is known that he does not believe in idols and
does not worship them.”
Maimonides has the same in Hilkhoth Akum (IX, 2):
“It is also wrong to send a gift to a Goi on their feast days unless it is certain that he does not believe in the worship of
Christian idols, and does not serve them.”
Article IV. – Christians Are to Be Avoided – Because They Are Evil
There is nothing that Jews are more convinced of than the harm which Christians can do to the children of Israel.
Because of this, the rulers of the Chosen People have always instructed them not to accept any help from Christians who
will always resort to murder, and to other crimes, whenever they cannot otherwise obtain their evil ends. Thus a Jew
must not employ a Christian as a nurse, or as a teacher for his children, or as a doctor, a barber or an obstetrician.

1. NOT AS A NURSE

In Iore Dea (81, 7, Hagah) it says:
“A child must not be nursed by a Nokhri, if an Israelite can be had; for the milk of the Nokhrith hardens the heart of a child
and builds up an evil nature in him.”

2. NOT AS A TEACHER

In Iore Dea (153, 1, Hagah) it says:
“A child must not be given to the Akum to learn manners, literature or the arts, for they will lead him to heresy.”

3. NOT AS A DOCTOR

In Iore Dea (155, 1) it says:
“When a Jew is wounded in any way, even so gravely that he would have to violate the Sabbath in having a doctor, he
must not employ the services of a Christian (Akum) doctor who is not known to everyone in the neighborhood; for we
must guard against the spilling of blood. Even when it is not known if the patient will live or die, such a doctor must not
be allowed to attend him. If, however, he is sure to die, then such a doctor may attend him, since an extra hour of life is
not much to lose. If the Akum insists that a certain medicine is good, you may believe him, but be sure not to buy it from
him. There are some who say that this holds only when the Akum offer help free, and that it can be accepted every time
it is paid for. But it can be taken for granted that they would not harm a Jew just for the sake of a matter of money.”
In Pesachim (25a) it says:
“Rabbi Jochanan says: medical help can be accepted from all except idolaters, fornicators and murderers.”

4. NOT AS A BARBER

In Iore Dea (156,1 ) it says:
“You must not be shaven by an Akum unless your Jewish friends are with you. There are some who say that it is not
permitted to be shaved by an Akum even when others are present, unless you can see yourself in a mirror.”

5. NOT AS AN OBSTETRICIAN

In Abhodah Zarah (26a) it says:
“Our Rabbis have passed it down for us, that a foreign woman must never be allowed to act as midwife at the birth of
a child of Israel, because they are given to the shedding of blood. The Elders say, however, that a foreign woman may
perfrom this task provided there are other Jewish women present, but never alone. Rabbi Meir, however, says that it is not
allowed even others are present. For they often crush the soft head of the child with their hands and kill it; and they can
do this without being noticed by those who are present.”
CHAPTER II

CHRISTIANS MUST BE

EXTERMINATED

The followers of “that man,” whose name is taken by the Jews to mean “May his name and memory be blotted out,” are
not otherwise to be regarded than as people whom it would be good to get rid of. They are called Romans and tyrants
who hold captive the children of Israel, and by their destruction the Jews would be freed from this Fourth Captivity.
Every Jew is therefore bound to do all he can to destroy that impious kingdom of the Edomites (Rome) which rules the
whole world. Since, however, it is not always and everywhere possible to effect this extermination of Christians, the Talmud
orders that they should be attacked at least indirectly, namely: by injuring them in every possible way, and by thus lessening
their power, help towards their ultimate destruction. Wherever it is possible a Jew should kill Christians, and do so without
mercy.
Article I. – HARM MUST BE DONE TO CHRISTIANS
A Jew is commanded to harm Christians wherever he can, both indirectly by not helping them in any way, and also directly
by wrecking their plans and projects; neither must he save a Christian who is in danger of death.
I. GOOD MUST NOT BE DONE TO CHRISTIANS
In Zohar (1, 25b) it says:
“Those who do good to the Akum…will not rise from the dead.”
At times it is permitted to do good to Christians, but only in order to help Israel, namely, for the sake of peace and to hide
hatred of them. Maimonides in Hilkhoth Akum (X, 6) says:
“Needy Gentiles may be helped as well as needy Jews, for the sake of peace…”
In Iore Dea (148, 12 Hagah) it says:
“Therefore if you enter a town and find them celebrating a feast, you may pretend to rejoice with them in order to hide
your hatred. Those, however, who care about the salvation of their souls should keep away from such celebrations.
You should make it known that it is a hateful thing to rejoice with them, if you can do so without incurring enmity.”
1. IT IS NOT PERMITTED TO PRAISE A CHRISTIAN
In Abhodah Zarah (20, a, Toseph) it says:
“Do not say anything in praise of them, lest it be said: How good that Goi is!”
In this way they explain the words of Deuteronomy (VII, 2)… and thou shalt show no mercy unto them [Goim], as
cited in the Gemarah. Rabbi S. Iarchi explains this Bible passage as follows:
“Do not pay them any compliments; for it is forbidden to say: how good that Goi is.”
In Iore Dea (151, 14) it says:
“No one is allowed to praise them or to say how good an Akum is. How much less to praise what they do or to recount
anything about them which would redound to their glory. If, however, while praising them you intend to give glory to God,
namely, because he has created comely creatures, then it is allowed to do so.”
2. A JEW NOT ALLOWED TO MENTION THE THINGS WHICH CHRISTIANS USE FOR THEIRIDOLATROUS WORSHIP
In Hilkhoth Akum (V, 12) it says:
“It is also forbidden to make mention of the Akum; for it is written (Exodus XXIII, 13):…and make no mention of other
gods.”

3. THEIR IDOLS MUST BE SPOKEN OF WITH CONTEMPT
In Iore Dea (146, 15) it says:
“Their idols must be destroyed, or called by contemptuous names.”
Ibidem, (147, 5):
“It is permitted to deride idols, and it is forbidden to say to a Goi: May your God help you, or I hope you will succeed.”
Rabbi Bechai, explaining the text of Deuteronomy about hating idolatry, says:
“The Scripture teached us to hate idols and to call them by ignominious names. Thus, if the name of a church is
Bethgalia – “house of magnificence,” it should be called Bethkaria – an insignificant house, a pigs’ house, a latrine. For
this word, karia, denotes a low-down, slum place.”
In numerous places ignominious names are given by the Jews to Christian things. It will not be out of place to list a few of
these names which they give to things and persons which are held holy and dear by Christians, as follows:
JESUS is ignominiously called Jeschu – which means, May his name and memory be blotted out. His proper name in
Hebrew is Jeschua, which means Salvation.
MARY, THE MOTHER OF JESUS, is called Charia – dung, excrement (German Dreck). In Hebrew her proper name
is Miriam.
CHRISTIAN SAINTS, the word for which in Hebrew Kedoschim, are called Kededchim (cinaedos) – feminine men
(Farries). Women saints are called Kedeschoth, whores.
SUNDAY is called the day of calamity.
FEAST OF CHRISTMAS is called Nital, denoting extermination.
EASTER is not called by the proper name Pesach (Passover), but Ketsach, meaning a cutting down; or Kesach, a Gallows.
A CHRISTIAN CHURCH is not called Beth Hattefillah, House of Prayer, but Beth Hattiflah, a House of Vanity, a
House of Evil.
THE GOSPEL BOOKS are called Aavon Gilaion, Books of Iniquity.
CHRISTIAN SACRIFICES are called Dung Offerings. In the Jerusalem Talmud (fol. 13b) the following occurs:
“He who sees them mezabbelim (excrementing – sacrificing) before their idol, let him say (Exod. XXII, 20):
He that sacrificeth unto an idol shall be utterly destroyed.”
Rabbi Iarchi (referring to Num. XXV, 3) teaches that the Gentiles actually honor their God by excrementing before him.
A CHRISTIAN GIRL who works for Jews on their sabbath is called a Schaw-wesschicksel, Sabbath Dirt.
4. A JEW IS NOT ALLOWED TO GIVE GIFTS TO CHRISTIANS
In Hilkohoth Akum (X, 5) it says:
“It is forbidden to give gifts to the Goim. But it is permitted to give them to a convert who lives among the Jews; for it is said:
To the traveller who stops in your cities, give it to him to eat, or sell it to a Gentile, that is sell it, not give it.”
In Iore Dea (151, 11) it says:
“It is forbidden to give free gifts to the Akum with whom a Jew may not treat familiarly.”
The Talmud, however, allows a Jew to give gifts to Gentiles who are known to himand from whom he has hope of
getting something in return.
5. A JEW IS FORBIDDEN TO SELL HIS FARM TO CHRISTIANS
In Iore Dea (334, 43) it says:
“In 24 cases a Jew must be repudiated, namely …8. Anyone who sells his farm to the Akum must be sent into exile -
unless he undertakes to make up for all the harm that follows as a consequence of having the Akum live near the Jews.”
6. IT IS FORBIDDEN TO TEACH A TRADE TO CHRISTIANS
In Iore Dea (154, 2) it says:
“It is not permitted to teach any trade to the Akum.”
II. HARM MUST BE DON TO THE WORK OF CHRISTIANS
Since the Goim minister to Jews like beasts of burden, they belong to a Jew together with his life and all his faculties:
“The life of a Goi and all his physical powers belong to a Jew.” (A. Rohl. Die Polem. p.20)
It is an axiom of the Rabbis that a Jew may take anything that belongs to Christians for any reason whatsoever, even by
fraud; nor can such be called robbery since it is merely taking what belongs to him.
In Babha Bathra (54 b) it says:
“All things pertaining to the Goim are like a desert; the first person to come along and take them can claim them for his own.”
1. CHRISTIANS MUST NOT BE TOLD IF THEY PAY TOO MUCH TO A JEW
In Choschen Hamm. (183, 7) it says:
“If you send a messenger to collect money from an Akum and the Akum pays too much, the messenger may keep the
difference. But if the messenger does not know about it, then you may keep it all yourself.”
2. LOST PROPERTY OF CHRISTIANS MUST NOT BE RETURNED TO THEM
In Choschen Hamm. (266, 1) it says:
“A Jew may keep anything he finds which belongs to the Akum, for it is written: Return to thy brethren what is lost
(Deuter. XXII, 3). For he who returns lost property [to Christians] sins against the Law by increasing the power of the
transgressors of the Law. It is praiseworthy, however, to return lost property if it is done to honor the name of God, namely,
if by so doing Christians will praise the Jews and look upon them as honorable people.”
3. CHRISTIANS MAY BE DEFRAUDED
In Babha Kama (113b) it says:
“It is permitted to deceive a Goi.”
And in Choschen Hamm. (156, 5 Hagah) it says:
“If a Jew is doing good business with an Akum it is not allowed to other Jews, in certain places, to come and do business
with the same Akum. In other places, however, it is different, where another Jews is allowed to go to the same Akum, lead
him on, do business with him and to deceive him and take his money. For the wealth of the Akum is to be regarded as
common property and belongs to the first who can get it. There are some, however, who say that this should not be done.”
In Choschen Hamm. (183, 7 Hagah) it says:
“If a Jew is doing business with an Akum and a fellow Israelite comes along and defrauds the Akum, either by false
measure, weight or number, he must divide his profit with his fellow Israelite, since both had a part in the deal, and also in
order to help him along.”
4. A JEW MAY PRETEND HE IS A CHRISTIAN TO DECEIVE CHRISTIANS
In Iore Dea (157, 2 Hagah) it says:
“If a Jew is able to deceive them [idolaters] by pretending he is a worshipper of the stars, he may do so.”
5. A JEW IS ALLOWED TO PRACTICE USURY ON CHRISTIANS
In Abhodah Zarah (54a) it says:;
“It is allowed to take usury from Apostates who fall into idolatry.”
And in Iore Dea (159, 1) it says:
“It is permitted, according to the Torah, to lend money to an Akum with usury. Some of the Elders, however, deny this
except in a case of life and death. Nowadays it is permitted for any reason.”

III. CHRISTIANS TO BE

HARMED IN

LEGAL MATTERS

1. A JEW MAY LIE AND PERJURE HIMSELF TO CONDEMN A CHRISTIAN
In Babha Kama (113a) it says:
“Our teaching is as follows: When a Jew and a Goi come into court, absolve the Jew, if you can, according to the laws of
Israel. If the Goi wins, tell him that is what our laws require. If however, the Jew can be absolved according to the gentile
law, absolve him and say it is due to our laws. If this cannot be done proceed callously against the Goim, as Rabbi
Ischmael advises. Rabbi Akibha, however, holds that you cannot act fraudulently lest you profane the Name of God,
and have a Jew commited for perjury.”
A marginal note, however, explains this qualification of Rabbi Akibha as follows:
“The name of God is not profaned when it is not known by the Goi that the Jew has lied.”
And further on, the Babha Kama (113b) says:
“The name of God is not profaned when, for example, a Jew lies to a Goi by saying: ‘I gave something to your father, but
he is dead; you must return it to me,’ as long as the Goi does not know that you are lying.”
2. A JEW MAY PERJURE HIMSELF WITH A CLEAR CONSCIENCE
In Kallah (1b, p.18…) it says:
“She (the mother of the mamzer) said to him, ‘Swaer to me.’ And Rabbi Akibha swore with his lips, but in his heart he
invalidated his oath.”
A similar text is found in Schabbuoth Hagahoth of Rabbi Ascher (6d):
“If the magistrate of a city compels Jews to swear that they will not escape from the city nor take anything out of it, they
may swear falsely by saying to themselves that they will not escape today, nor take anything out of the city today only.”

IV. CHRISTIANS MUST BE HARMED

IN THINGS NECESSARY FOR LIFE

Jews must spare no means in fighting the tyrants who hold them in this Fourth Captivity in order to set themselves free.
They must fight Christians with astuteness and do nothing to prevent evil from happening to them: their sick must not be
cared for, Christian women in childbirth must not be helped, nor must they be saved when in danger of death.
1. A JEW MUST ALWAYS TRY TO DECEIVE CHRISTIANS
In Zohar (I, 160a) it says:
“Rabbi Jehuda said to him [Rabbi Cezkia]: ‘He is to be praised who is able to free himself from the enemies of Israel, and
the just are much to be praised who get free from them and fight against them. ‘Rabbi Chezkia asked, ‘How must we fight
against them?’ Rabbi Jehuda said, ‘By wise counsel thou shalt war against them’ (Proverbs, ch. 24, 6). By what kind of
war? The kind of war that every son of man must fight against his enemies, which Jacob used against Esau – by deceit
and trickery whenever possible. They must be fought against without ceasing, until proper order be restored. Thus it is with
satisfaction that I say we should free ourselves from them and rule over them.”
2. A SICK CHRISTIAN MUST NOT BE AIDED
In Iore Dea (158, 1) it says:
“The Akum are not to be cured, even for money, unless it would incur their enmity.”
3. A CHRISTIAN WOMAN IN CHILDBIRTH MUST NOT BE HELPED
In Orach Chaiim (330, 2) it says:
“No help is to be given to an Akun woman in labor on the sabbath, even in a small way, for the Sabbath must not be
violated.”
4. A CHRISTIAN IN DANGER OF DEATH MUST NOT BE HELPED
In Choschen Hamm. (425, 5) it says:
“If you see a heretic, who does not believe in the Torah, fall into a well in which there is a ladder, hurry at once and take it
away and say to him ‘I have to go and take my son down from a roof; I will bring the ladder back to you at once’ or
something else. The Kuthaei, however, who are not our enemies, who take care of the sheep of the Israelites, are not to be
killed directly, but they must not be saved from death.”
And in Iore Dea (158, 1) it says:
“The Akum who are not enemies of ours must not be killed directly, nevertheless they must not be saved from danger of
death. For example, if you see one of them fall into the sea, do not pull him out unless he promises to give you money.”
Maimonides, in Hilkhoth Akum (X, 1) says:
“Do not have pity for them, for it is said (Deuter. VII, 2): Show no mercy unto them. Therefore, if you see an Akum in
difficulty or drowning, do not go to his help. And if he is in danger of death, do not save him from death. But it is not
right to kill him by your own hand by shoving them into a well or in some other way, since they are not at war with us.”

Article II

. – CHRISTIANS

ARE TO BE KILLED

Lastly, the Talmud commands that Christians are to be killed without mercy. In the Abhodah Zarah (26b) it says:
“Heretics, traitors and apostates are to be thrown into a well and not rescued.”
And in Choschen Hammischpat (388, 10) it says:
“A spy is to be killed, even in our days, wherever he is found. He may be killed even before he confesses. And even if
he admits that he only intended to do harm to somebody, and if the harm which he intended is not very great, it is
sufficient to have him condemned to death. He must be warned, however, not to confess to this. But if he impudently says
‘No, I will confess it!’ then he must be killed, and the sooner the better. If there is no time to warn him, it is not necessary
to do so. There are some who say that a traitor is to be put to death only when it is impossible to get rid of him by
mutilating him, that is, by cutting out his tongue or his eyes, but if this can be done he must not be killed, since he is not
any worse than others who persecute us.”
And in Choschen Hamm. again (388, 15) it says:
“If it can be proved that someone has betrayed Israel three times, or has given the money of Israelites to the Akum, a way
must be found after prudent consideration to wipe him off the face of the earth.”
Even a Christian who is found studying the Law of Israel merits death. In Sanhedrin (59a) it says:
“Rabbi Jochanan says: A Goi who pries into the Law is guilty to death.”
II. BAPTIZED JEWS ARE TO BE PUT

TO DEATH

In Hilkhoth Akum (X, 2) it says:
“These things [supra] are intended for idolaters. But Israelites also, who lapse from their religion and become epicureans,
are to be killed, and we must persecute them to the end. For they afflict Israel and turn the people from God.”
And in Iore Dea (158, 2 Hagah) it says:
“Renegades who turn to the pleasures of the Akum, and who become contaminated with them by worshipping stars and
planets and sin maliciously; also those who eat the flesh of wounded animals, or who dress in vain clothes, deserve the name
of epicureans; likewise those who deny the Torah and the Prophets of Israel – the law is that all those should be killed;
and those who have the power of life and death should have them killed; and if this cannot be done, they should be led to
their death by deceptive methods.”
Rabbi Maimonides, in Hilkhoth Teschubhah (III, 8 …) gives the list of those who are considered as denying the Law:
“There are three classes of people who deny the Law of the Torah: (1) Those who say that the Torah was not given by God,
at least one verse or one word of it, and who say that it was all the work of Moses; (2) Those who reject the explanation
of the Torah, namely, the Oral Law of the Mischnah, and do not recognize the authority of the Doctors of the Law, like the
followers of Tsadok (Sadducees) and Baithos; (3) Those who say that God changed the Law for another New Law, and
that the Torah no longer has any value, although they do not deny that it was given by God, as the Christians and the Turks
believe. All of these deny the Law of the Torah.”

III. CHRISTIANS ARE TO BE KILLED

BECAUSE THEY ARE TYRANTS

In Zohar (I, 25a) it says:
“The People of the Earth are idolaters, and it has been written about them: Let them be wiped off the face of the earth.
Destroy the memory of the Amalekites. They are with us still in this Fourth Captivity, namely, the Princes [of Rome]…
who are really Amalakites.”
1. THESE PRINCES ARE TO BE KILLED FIRST
For if they are allowed to live, the hope of the liberation of the Jews is in vain, and their prayers for release from this Fourth
Captivity are of no avail. In Zohar (I, 219B) it says:
“It is certain that our captivity will last until the princes of the gentiles who worship idols are destroyed.”
And again in Zohar (II, 19a) it says:
“Rabbi Jehuda said: Come and see how it is; how the princes have assumed power over Israel and the Israelites make no
outcry. But their rejoicing is heard when the prince falls. It is written that: the King of the Egyptians died and soon the
children of Israel were released from captivity; they cried out and their voice ascended to God.”
2. THE PRINCEDOM WHOSE CHIEF CITY IS ROME IS THE ONE TO BE HATED MOST
OF ALL BY THE JEWS
They call it the Kingdom of Esau, and of the Edomites, the Kingdom of Pride, the Wicked Kingdom, Impious Rome. The
Turkish Empire is called the Kingdom of the Ismaelites which they do not wish to destroy. The Kingdom of Rome,
however, must be exterminated, because when corrupt Rome is destroyed, salvation and freedom will come to God’s
Chosen People.
Rabbi David Kimchi writes as follows in Obadian:
“What the Prophets foretold about the destruction of Edom in the last days was intended for Rome, as Isaiah explains
(ch. 34, 1): Come near, ye nations, to hear…For when Rome is destroyed, Israel shall be redeemed.”
Rabbi Abraham also, in his book Tseror Hammor, section Schoftim, says the same:
“Immediately after Rome is destroyed we shall be redeemed.”

IV. LASTLY, ALL CHRISTIANS, INCLUDING THE BEST OF THEM, ARE TO BE KILLED
In Abhodah Zarah (26b, Tosephoth) it says:
“Even the best of the Goim should be killed”
The Schulchan Arukh, after the words of Iore Dea (158, 1) that those of the Akum who do no harm to Jews are not to be
killed, namely those who do not wage war against Israel, thus explains the word Milchamah – war:
“But in time of war the Akum are to be killed, for it is written: ‘The good among the Akum deserve to be killed, etc.’”
V. A JEW WHO KILLS A CHRISTIAN COMMITS NO SIN, BUT OFFERS AN ACCEPTABLE
SACRIFICE TO GOD
In Speher Or Israel (177b) it says:
“Take the life of the Kliphoth and kill them, and you will please God the same as one who offers incense to Him.”
And in Ialkut Simoni (245c. n. 772) it says:
“Everyone who sheds the blood of the impious is as acceptable to God as he who offers a sacrifice to God.”
VI. AFTER THE DESTRUCTION OF THE TEMPLE AT JERUSALEM, THE ONLY SACRIFICE
NECESSARY IS THE EXTERMINATION OF CHRISTIANS
In Zohar (III, 227b) the Good Pastor says:
“The only sacrifice required is that we remove the unclean from amongst us.”
Zhoar (II, 43a), explaining the precept of Moses about the redemption of the first born of an ass by offering a lamb, says:
“The ass means the non-Jew, who is to be redeemed by the offering of a lamb, which is the dispersed sheep of Israel. But if
he refuses to be redeemed, then break his skull….They should be taken out of the book of the living, for it is said about
them: He who sins against me, I shall take out of the book of life.”

VII. THOSE WHO KILLO CHRISTIANS SHALL HAVE A HIGH PLACE IN HEAVEN
In Zohar (I, 38b, and 39a) it says:
“In the palaces of the fourth heaven are those who lamented over Sion and Jerusalem, and all those who destroyed
idolatrous nations…and those who killed off people who worship idols are clothed in purple garments so that they may be
recognized and honored.”
VIII. JEWS MUST NEVER CEASE TO EXTERMINATE THE GOIM; THEY MUST NEVER
LEAVE THEM IN PEACE AND NEVER SUBMIT TO THEM
In Hilhoth Akum (X, 1) it says:
“Do not eat with idolaters, nor permit them to worship their idols; for it is written: Make no covenant with them, nor show
mercy unto them (Deuter. ch. 7, 2). Either turn away from their idols or kill them.”
Ibidem (X, 7):
“In places where Jews are strong, no idolater must be allowed to remain…”

IX. ALL JEWS ARE OBLIGED TO UNITE TOGETHER TO DESTROY TRAITORS AMONG THEM
In Choschen Hamm. (338, 16) it says:
“All the inhabitants of a city are obliged to contribute to the expense of killing a traitor, even those who have to pay other
taxes.”
X. NO FESTIVAL, NO MATTER HOW SOLEMN, MUST PREVENT THE BEHEADING OF A CHRISTIAN
In Pesachim (49b) it says:
“Rabbi Eliezer said: It is permitted to cut off the head of an ‘idiot’ [one of the people of the Earth] on the feast of the
Atonement when it falls on the Sabbath. His disciples said to him: Rabbi, you should rather say to sacrifice. But he replied:
By no means, for it is necessary to pray while sacrificing, and there is no need of prayers when you behead someone.”
XI. THE ONE OBJECT OF ALL THE ACTIONS AND PRAYERS OF THE JEWS SHOULD BE
TO DESTROY THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION
Thus the Jews picture their Messiah and Liberator whom they expect, as a persecutor who will inflict great calamities upon
non-Jews. The Talmud lists three great evils which will come upon the world when the Messiah comes. In Schabbath (118a)
it says:
“Whoever eats three meals on the Sabbath shall be saved from the three evils: from the punishments of the Messiah, from the
pain of hell and from the war of Magog; for it is written: Behold, I shall send you Elias the Prophet before the coming of
the ‘Day’ of the Lord, etc.*
XII. IN THEIR PRAYERS THE JEWS SIGH FOR THE COMING OF THE REVENGEFUL MESSIA, ESPECIALLY ON THE EVE OF THE PASSOVER:

“pour out thy anger upon nations that know thee not, and upon the kingdoms which do not invoke thy name; Pour out thy
indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them; Persecute and destroy them in anger from under the
heavens of the Lord.”
They also pray as follows:
“How long will thy strength remain captive and thy beauty lie under the hand of the oppressor? O God! Show forth
thy strength and thy zeal against our enemies; break their strength and let them be confounded…”
And again:
“Cut off the hope of the unjust; let all heretics perish at once; root out, break up and destroy the Proud Kingdom; hasten
to make all peoples subject in our days.”
At that very same time, on Good Friday, that “Prince of the Proud Empire” of Rome, the Pope, prays, and orders everyone in the world to pray for all “heretics” and those who are “lost”, as follows:
“Let us pray for the perfidious Jews: that the Lord our God may take away the veil from their hearts, that they may acknowledge Jesus Christ our Lord.
“Omnipotent and Eternal God, who does not even exclude Jewish perfidy from thy mercy: hear our prayers which we offer for the blindness of that people, that, having recognized the light of thy truth, which is Christ, they may come out of their darkness, Through Jesus Christ our Lord…”

THE TRUTH
ABOUT
THE TALMUD
A Documented Exposé of Jewish racist Hate Literature
(Copyright ©1999 – by Michael A. Hoffman II and Alan R. Critchley)

Introduction
The Talmud is Judaism’s holiest book (actually a collection of books). Its authority takes precedence over the Old Testament in Judaism. Evidence of this may be found in the Talmud itself, Erubin 21b (Soncino edition): “My son, be more careful in the observance of the words of the Scribes than in the words of the Torah (Old Testament).”
The supremacy of the Talmud over the Bible in the Israeli state may also be seen in the case of the black Ethiopian Jews. Ethiopians are very knowledgeable of the Old Testament. However, their religion is so ancient it pre-dates the Scribes’ Talmud, of which the Ethiopians have no knowledge. According to the N.Y. Times of Sept. 29, 1992, p.4:
“The problem is that Ethiopian Jewish tradition goes no further than the Bible or Torah; the later Talmud and other commentaries that form the basis of modern traditions never came their way.”
Because they are not traffickers in Talmudic tradition, the black Ethiopian Jews are discriminated against and have been forbidden by the Zionists to perform marriages, funerals and other services in the Israeli state.
Rabbi Joseph D. Soloveitchik is regarded as one of the most influential rabbis of the 20th century, the “unchallenged leader” of Orthodox Judaism and the top international authority on halakha (Jewish religious law). Soloveitchik was responsible for instructing and ordaining more than 2,000 rabbis, “an entire generation” of Jewish leadership.
N.Y. Times religion reporter Ari Goldman described the basis of the rabbi’s authority:
“Soloveitchik came from a long line of distinguished Talmudic scholars…Until his early 20s, he devoted himself almost exclusively to the study of the Talmud…He came to Yeshiva University’s Elchanan Theological Seminary where he remained the pre-eminent teacher in the Talmud…He held the title of Leib Merkin professor of Talmud…sitting with his feet crossed in front of a table bearing an open volume of the Talmud.” (N.Y. Times, April 10, 1993, p. 38.).
Nowhere does Goldman refer to Soloveitchik’s knowledge of the Bible as the basis for being one of the leading authorities on Jewish law.
The rabbi’s credentials are all predicated upon his mastery of the Talmud. Other studies are clearly secondary. Britain’s Jewish Chronicle of March 26, 1993 states that in religious school (yeshiva), Jews are “devoted to the Talmud to the exclusion of everything else.”

The Talmud Nullifies the Bible

The Jewish Scribes claim the Talmud is partly a collection of traditions Moses gave them in oral form. These had not yet been written down in Jesus’ time. Christ condemned the traditions of the Mishnah (early Talmud) and those who taught it (Scribes and Pharisees), because the Talmud nullifies the teachings of the Holy Bible.
Shmuel Safrai in The Literature of the Sages Part One (p.164), points out that in chapters 4 and 5 of the Talmud’s Gittin Tractate, the Talmud nullifies the Biblical teaching concerning money-lending: “Hillel decreed the prozbul for the betterment of the world. The prozbul is a legal fiction which allows debts to be collected after the Sabbatical year and it was Hillel’s intention thereby to overcome the fear that money-lenders had of losing their money.”
The famous warning of Jesus Christ about the tradition of men that voids Scripture (Mark 7:1-13), is in fact, a direct reference to the Talmud, or more specifically, the forerunner of the first part of it, the Mishnah, which existed in oral form during Christ’s lifetime, before being committed to writing. Mark chapter 7, from verse one through thirteen, represents Our Lord’s pointed condemnation of the Mishnah.
Unfortunately, due to the abysmal ignorance of our day, the widespread “Judeo-Christian” notion is that the Old Testament is the supreme book of Judaism. But this is not so. The Pharisees teach for doctrine the commandments of rabbis, not God.
The Talmudic commentary on the Bible is their supreme law, and not the Bible itself. That commentary does indeed, as Jesus said, void the laws of God, not uphold them. As students of the Talmud, we know this to be true.
Jewish scholar Hyam Maccoby, in Judaism on Trial, quotes Rabbi Yehiel ben Joseph: “Further, without the Talmud, we would not be able to understand passages in the Bible…God has handed this authority to the sages and tradition is a necessity as well as scripture. The Sages also made enactments of their own…anyone who does not study the Talmud cannot understand Scripture.”
There is a tiny Jewish sect which makes considerable effort to eschew Talmud and adhere to the Old Testament alone. These are the Karaites, a group which, historically, has been most hated and severely persecuted by orthodox Jewish rabbinate.
To the Mishnah the rabbis later added the Gemara (rabbinical commentaries). Together these comprise the Talmud. There are two versions, the Jerusalem Talmud and the Babylonian Talmud.
The Babylonian Talmud is regarded as the authoritative version: “The authority of the Babylonian Talmud is also greater than that of the Jerusalem Talmud. In cases of doubt the former is decisive.” (R.C. Musaph-Andriesse, From Torah to Kabbalah: A Basic Introduction to the Writings of Judaism, p. 40).
This study is based on the Jewish-authorized Babylonian Talmud. We have published herein the authenticated sayings of the Jewish Talmud. Look them up for yourself.
We publish the following irrefutable documentation in the hope of liberating all people, including Jewish people, from the corrosive delusions and racism of this Talmudic hate literature, which is the manual of Orthodox and Hasidic Jews the world over.
The implementation by Jewish supremacists of Talmudic hate literature has caused untold suffering throughout history and now, in occupied Palestine, it is used as a justification for the mass murder of Palestinian civilians. The Talmud specifically defines all who are not Jews as non-human animals.
Some Teachings of the Jewish Talmud
Erubin 21b. Whosoever disobeys the rabbis deserves death and will be punished by being boiled in hot excrement in hell.
Moed Kattan 17a . If a Jew is tempted to do evil he should go to a city where he is not known and do the evil there.
Hitting a Jew is the same as hitting God
Sanhedrin 58b. If a heathen (gentile) hits a Jew, the gentile must be killed.
O.K. to Cheat Non-Jews
Sanhedrin 57a . A Jew need not pay a gentile (“Cuthean”) the wages owed him for work.
Jews Have Superior Legal Status
Baba Kamma 37b. “If an ox of an Israelite gores an ox of a Canaanite there is no liability; but if an ox of a Canaanite gores an ox of an Israelite…the payment is to be in full.”
Jews May Steal from Non-Jews
Baba Mezia 24a . If a Jew finds an object lost by a gentile (“heathen”) it does not have to be returned. (Affirmed also in Baba Kamma 113b). Sanhedrin 76a. God will not spare a Jew who “marries his daughter to an old man or takes a wife for his infant son or returns a lost article to a Cuthean…”
Jews May Rob and Kill Non-Jews
Sanhedrin 57a . When a Jew murders a gentile (“Cuthean”), there will be no death penalty. What a Jew steals from a gentile he may keep.
Baba Kamma 37b. The gentiles are outside the protection of the law and God has “exposed their money to Israel.”
Jews May Lie to Non-Jews
Baba Kamma 113a. Jews may use lies (“subterfuges”) to circumvent a Gentile.
Non-Jewish Children are Sub-Human
Yebamoth 98a. All gentile children are animals.
Abodah Zarah 36b. Gentile girls are in a state of niddah (filth) from birth.
Abodah Zarah 22a-22b . Gentiles prefer sex with cows.
Insults Against Blessed Mary
Sanhedrin 106a . Says Jesus’ mother was a whore: “She who was the descendant of princes and governors played the harlot with carpenters.” Also in footnote #2 to Shabbath 104b of the Soncino edition, it is stated that in the “uncensored” text of the Talmud it is written that Jesus mother, “Miriam the hairdresser,” had sex with many men.
Gloats over Christ Dying Young
A passage from Sanhedrin 106 gloats over the early age at which Jesus died: “Hast thou heard how old Balaam (Jesus) was?–He replied: It is not actually stated but since it is written, Bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days it follows that he was thirty-three or thirty-four years old.”
Jesus in the Talmud:
Horrible Blasphemies Against Jesus Christ
While it is the standard disinformation practice of apologists for the Talmud to deny that it contains any scurrilous references to Jesus Christ, certain Orthodox Jewish organizations are more forthcoming and admit that the Talmud not only mentions Jesus but disparages him (as a sorcerer and a demented sex freak). These orthodox Jewish organizations make this admission perhaps out of the belief that Jewish supremacy is so well-established in the modern world that they need not concern themselves with adverse reactions.
For example, on the website of the Orthodox Jewish Hasidic Lubavitch group–one of the largest in the world–we find the following statement, complete with Talmudic citations:
“The Talmud (Babylonian edition) records other sins of ‘Jesus the Nazarene’:
1) He and his disciples practiced sorcery and black magic, led Jews astray into idolatry, and were sponsored by foreign, gentile powers for the purpose of subverting Jewish worship (Sanhedrin 43a).
2) He was sexually immoral, worshipped statues of stone (a brick is mentioned), was cut off from the Jewish people for his wickedness, and refused to repent (Sanhedrin 107b; Sotah 47a).
3) He learned witchcraft in Egypt and, to perform miracles, used procedures that involved cutting his flesh, which is also explicitly banned in the Bible (Shabbos 104b).

Let us examine further some of these anti-Christ Talmud passages:
Gittin 57a. Says Jesus is in hell, being boiled in “hot excrement.”
Sanhedrin 43a. Says Jesus (“Yeshu” and in Soncino footnote #6, Yeshu “the Nazarene”) was executed because he practiced sorcery: “It is taught that on the eve of Passover Jesus was hung, and forty days before this the proclamation was made: Jesus is to be stoned to death because he has practiced sorcery and has lured the people to idolatry…He was an enticer and of such thou shalt not pity or condone.”

Kallah 51a.”The elders were once sitting in the gate when two young lads passed by; one covered his head and the other uncovered his head. Of him who uncovered his head Rabbi Eliezer remarked that he is a bastard. Rabbi Joshua remarked that he is the son of a niddah (a child conceived during a woman’s menstrual period). Rabbi Akiba said that he is both a bastard and a son of a niddah.
“They said, ‘What induced you to contradict the opinion of your colleagues?’ He replied, “I will prove it concerning him.” He went to the lad’s mother and found her sitting in the market selling beans.
“He said to her, ‘My daughter, if you will answer the question I will put to you, I will bring you to the world to come.’ (eternal life). She said to him, ‘Swear it to me.’
“Rabbi Akiba, taking the oath with his lips but annulling it in his heart, said to her, ‘What is the status of your son?’ She replied, ‘When I entered the bridal chamber I was niddah (menstruating) and my husband kept away from me; but my best man had intercourse with me and this son was born to me.’ Consequently the child was both a bastard and the son of a niddah.
“It was declared, ‘..Blessed be the God of Israel Who Revealed His Secret to Rabbi Akiba…”
In addition to the theme that God rewards clever liars, the preceding Talmud discussion is actually about Jesus Christ (the bastard boy who “uncovered his head” and was conceived in the filth of menstruation). The boy’s adulterous mother in this Talmud story is the mother of Christ, Blessed Mary (called Miriam and sometimes, Miriam the hairdresser, in the Talmud).
“The Editio Princeps of the complete Code of Talmudic Law, Maimonides’ Mishneh Torah — replete not only with the most offensive precepts against all Gentiles but also with explicit attacks on Christianity and on Jesus (after whose name the author adds piously, ‘May the name of the wicked perish’)… –Dr. Israel Shahak, Jewish History, Jewish Religion, p. 21.
“The Talmud contains a few explicit references to Jesus…These references are certainly not complimentary…There seems little doubt that the account of the execution of Jesus on the eve of Passover does refer to the Christian Jesus…The passage in which Jesus’ punishment in hell is described also seems to refer to the Christian Jesus. It is a piece of anti-Christian polemic dating from the post-70 CE period…” –Hyam Maccoby, Judaism on Trial, pp. 26-27.
“According to the Talmud, Jesus was executed by a proper rabbinical court for idolatry, inciting other Jews to idolatry, and contempt of rabbinical authority. All classical Jewish sources which mention his execution are quite happy to take responsibility for it; in the talmudic account the Romans are not even mentioned.
“The more popular accounts–which were nevertheless taken quite seriously–such as the notorious Toldot Yeshu are even worse, for in addition to the above crimes they accuse him of witchcraft. The very name ‘Jesus’ was for Jews a symbol of all that is abominable and this popular tradition still persists…
“The Hebrew form of the name Jesus–Yeshu–was interpreted as an acronym for the curse, ‘may his name and memory be wiped out,’ which is used as an extreme form of abuse. In fact, anti-zionist Orthodox Jews (such as Neturey Qarta) sometimes refer to Herzl as ‘Herzl Jesus’ and I have found in religious zionist writings expressions such as “Nasser Jesus” and more recently ‘Arafat Jesus.” –Dr. Israel Shahak, Jewish History, Jewish Religion, pp. 97- 98, 118.
Talmud Attacks Christians and Christian Books
Rosh Hashanah 17a. Christians (minnim) and others who reject the Talmud will go to hell and be punished there for all generations.
Sanhedrin 90a. Those who read the New Testament (“uncanonical books”) will have no portion in the world to come.
Shabbath 116a. Jews must destroy the books of the Christians, i.e. the New Testament.
Dr. Israel Shahak of Hebrew University reports that the Israelis burned hundreds of New Testament Bibles in occupied Palestine on March 23, 1980 (cf. Jewish History, Jewish Religion, p. 21).
Sick and Insane Teachings of the Talmud
Gittin 69a . To heal his flesh a Jew should take dust that lies within the shadow of an outdoor toilet, mix with honey and eat it.
Shabbath 41a. The law regulating the rule for how to urinate in a holy way is given.
Yebamoth 63a. States that Adam had sexual intercourse with all the animals in the Garden of Eden.
Yebamoth 63a. Declares that agriculture is the lowest of occupations.
Sanhedrin 55b. A Jew may marry a three year old girl (specifically, three years “and a day” old).
Sanhedrin 54b. A Jew may have sex with a child as long as the child is less than nine years old.
Kethuboth 11b. “When a grown-up man has intercourse with a little girl it is nothing.”
Yebamoth 59b. A woman who had intercourse with a beast is eligible to marry a Jewish priest. A woman who has sex with a demon is also eligible to marry a Jewish priest.
Abodah Zarah 17a. States that there is not a whore in the world that the Talmudic sage Rabbi Eleazar has not had sex with.
Hagigah 27a. States that no rabbi can ever go to hell.
Baba Mezia 59b. A rabbi debates God and defeats Him. God admits the rabbi won the debate.
Gittin 70a. The Rabbis taught: “On coming from a privy (outdoor toilet) a man should not have sexual intercourse till he has waited long enough to walk half a mile, because the demon of the privy is with him for that time; if he does, his children will be epileptic.”
Gittin 69b. To heal the disease of pleurisy (“catarrh”) a Jew should “take the excrement of a white dog and knead it with balsam, but if he can possibly avoid it he should not eat the dog’s excrement as it loosens the limbs.”
Pesahim 111a. It is forbidden for dogs, women or palm trees to pass between two men, nor may others walk between dogs, women or palm trees. Special dangers are involved if the women are menstruating or sitting at a crossroads.
Menahoth 43b-44a. A Jewish man is obligated to say the following prayer every day: Thank you God for not making me a gentile, a woman or a slave.
Tall Tales of a Roman Holocaust
Here are two early “Holocaust” tales from the Talmud: Gittin 57b. Claims that four billion Jews were killed by the Romans in the city of Bethar. Gittin 58a claims that 16 million Jewish children were wrapped in scrolls and burned alive by the Romans. (Ancient demography indicates that there were not 16 million Jews in the entire world at that time, much less 16 million Jewish children or four billion Jews).
A Revealing Admission
Abodah Zarah 70a. The question was asked of the rabbi whether wine stolen in Pumbeditha might be used or if it was defiled, due to the fact that the thieves might have been gentiles (a gentile touching wine would make the wine unclean). The rabbi says not to worry, that the wine is permissible for Jewish use because the majority of the thieves in Pumbeditha, the place where the wine was stolen, are Jews. (Also cf. Gemara Rosh Hashanah 25b).
Pharisaic Rituals
Erubin 21b. “Rabbi Akiba said to him, “Give me some water to wash my hands.”
“It will not suffice for drinking,” the other complained, “will it suffice for washing your hands?”
“What can I do?’ the former replied, “when for neglecting the words of the Rabbis one deserves death? It is better that I myself should die than that I transgress against the opinion of my colleagues.” [This is the ritual hand washing condemned by Jesus in Matthew 15: 1-9].
Genocide Advocated by the Talmud
Minor Tractates. Soferim 15, Rule 10. This is the saying of Rabbi Simon ben Yohai: Tob shebe goyyim harog (“Even the best of the gentiles should all be killed”).
This passage is from the original Hebrew of the Babylonian Talmud as quoted by the 1907 Jewish Encyclopedia, published by Funk and Wagnalls and compiled by Isidore Singer, under the entry, “Gentile,” (p. 617).
This original Talmud passage has been concealed in translation. The Jewish Encyclopedia states that, “…in the various versions the reading has been altered, ‘The best among the Egyptians’ being generally substituted.” In the Soncino version: “the best of the heathens” (Minor Tractates, Soferim 41a-b].
Israelis annually take part in a national pilgrimage to the grave of Simon ben Yohai, to honor this rabbi who advocated the extermination of non-Jews. (Jewish Press, June 9, 1989, p. 56B).
On Purim, Feb. 25, 1994, Israeli army officer Baruch Goldstein, an orthodox Jew from Brooklyn, massacred 40 Palestinian civilians, including children, while they knelt in prayer in a mosque. Goldstein was a disciple of the late Brooklyn Rabbi Meir Kahane, who told CBS News that his teaching that Arabs are “dogs” is derived “from the Talmud.” (CBS 60 Minutes, “Kahane”).
University of Jerusalem Prof. Ehud Sprinzak described Kahane and Goldstein’s philosophy: “They believe it’s God’s will that they commit violence against goyim, a Hebrew term for non-Jews.” (NY Daily News, Feb. 26, 1994, p. 5).
Rabbi Yitzhak Ginsburg declared, “We have to recognize that Jewish blood and the blood of a goy are not the same thing.” (NY Times, June 6, 1989, p.5).
Rabbi Yaacov Perrin said, “One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail.” (NY Daily News, Feb. 28, 1994, p.6).
Talmudic Doctrine: Non-Jews are not Human
The Talmud specifically defines all who are not Jews as non-human animals, and specifically dehumanizes gentiles as not being descendants of Adam. We will now list some of the Talmud passages which relate to this topic.
Kerithoth 6b: Uses of Oil of Anointing. Our Rabbis have taught: He who pours the oil of anointing over cattle or vessels is not guilty; if over gentiles [Hebrew: goyim] or the dead, he is not guilty. The law relating to cattle and vessels is right, for it is written: “Upon the flesh of man [Hebrew: Adam] shall it not be poured [Exodus 30:32]“; and cattle and vessels are not man [Adam].
“Also with regard to the dead, [it is plausible] that he is exempt, since after death one is called corpse and not a man [Adam]. But why is one exempt in the case of gentiles [goyim]; are they not in the category of man [Adam]? No, it is written: “And ye my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are man” [Adam] (Ezekiel 34:31): Ye are called man [Adam] but gentiles [goyim] are not called man [Adam].”
In the preceding passage, the Rabbis are discussing the Mosaic law which forbids applying the holy oil to men. In the discussion, the rabbis state that it is not a sin to apply the holy oil to gentiles, since gentiles are not human beings (literally, Adam).

Yebamoth 61a: “It was taught: And so did R. Simeon ben Yohai state [61a] that the graves of gentiles [goyim] do not impart levitical uncleanness by an ohel [standing or bending over a grave], for it is said, ‘And ye my sheep the sheep of my pasture, are men [Adam]‘, [Ezekiel 34:31]; you are called men [Adam] but the idolaters are not called men [Adam].”
The Mosaic law states that touching a human corpse or grave imparts uncleanness to those who touch it. But the Talmud here teaches that if a Jew touches the grave of a gentile, it does not make him unclean, since gentiles are not human (literally, Adam).
Baba Mezia 114b: “Said he [Rabbah] to him: Art thou not a priest: why then dost thou stand in a cemetery? He replied: Has the Master not studied the laws of purity? For it has been taught: R. Simeon ben Yohai said: The graves of gentiles [goyim] do not defile, for it is written, ‘And ye my flock, the flock of my pastures, are men [Adam]‘ (Ezekiel 34:31); only ye are designated men [Adam].”
“A Jewish priest was standing in a graveyard. When asked why he was standing there in apparent violation of the Mosaic law, he replied that it was permissible, since the law only prohibits Jews from coming into contact with the graves of humans [Adamites], and he was standing in a gentile graveyard.”
Since the supposed Biblical proof text (Ezekiel 34:31) repeatedly cited in the above three Talmud passages in reality does not prove that only Jews are human, it is evident that the Talmudic sages who asserted the preceding absurdities about gentiles were already anti-gentile racists or ideologues who, in desperate search of some proof of their position, distorted an Old Testament passage in order to justify their bigotry.
Berakoth 58a: “R. Shila administered lashes to a man who had intercourse with an Egyptian woman. The man went and informed against him to the Government, saying: There is a man among the Jews who passes judgment without the permission of the Government. An official was sent to [summon] him. When he came he was asked: Why did you flog that man? He replied: Because he had intercourse with a she-ass.
“They said to him: Have you witnesses? He replied: I have. Elijah thereupon came in the form of a man and gave evidence. They said to him: If that is the case he ought to be put to death! He replied: Since we have been exiled from our land, we have no authority to put to death; do with him what you please.
“While they were considering his case, R. Shila exclaimed, ‘Thine, Oh Lord, is the greatness and the power’ [I Chronicles 29:11] What are you saying? they asked him. He replied: What I am saying is this: Blessed is the All-Merciful who has made the earthly royalty on the model of the heavenly, and has invested you with dominion, and made you lovers of justice.
“They said to him: Are you so solicitous for the honor of the Government? They handed him a staff and said to him: You may act as judge. When he went out that man said to him: Does the All-Merciful perform miracles for liars?
“He replied: Wretch! Are they not called asses? For it is written: ‘Whose flesh is as the flesh of asses’ [Ezekiel 23:20].
“He noticed that the man was about to inform them that he had called them asses. He said: This man is a persecutor, and the Torah has said: If a man comes to kill you, rise early and kill him first. So he struck him with the staff and killed him. He then said: Since a miracle has been wrought for me through this verse, I will expound it.”
Our apologies for subjecting the reader to the preceding lengthy, Talmudic drivel, but it is best to include all of it to demonstrate its depravity. In addition to having Elijah float down from heaven to deceive the gentile court, the Talmud teaches that gentiles are actually animals, hence Rabbi Shila (and Elijah) did not really lie at all. It also teaches that anyone (even a Jewish man) who reveals this Talmudic teaching about non-Jews deserves death, since revealing it makes gentiles wrathful and causes the repression of Judaism.
The Talmudic citation of this scripture from Ezekiel as a “proof-text” is specious, since the passage does not prove that gentiles are animals. The passage from Ezekiel only says that some Egyptians had large genital organs and copious emissions. This does not in any way prove or even connote that the Egyptians being referred to in the Bible were considered animals. Once again, the Talmud has falsified the Bible by means of distorted interpretation. Other Talmud passages which expound on Ezekiel 23:20 in this racist fashion are: Arakin 19b, Berakoth 25b, Niddah 45a, Shabbath 150a, Yebamoth 98a. Moreover, the original text of Sanhedrin 37a applies God’s approval only to the saving of Jewish lives (cf. the Hesronot Ha-shas, Cracow, 1894).
Moses Maimonides: Advocate of Extermination
We will now examine the post-Talmudic commentator Rambam (Moses Maimonides). This revered “sage” taught that Christians should be exterminated. He has the highest stature in Judaism:
“Moses Maimonides is considered the greatest codifier and philosopher in Jewish history. He is often affectionately referred to as the Rambam, after the initials of his name and title, Rabenu Moshe Ben Maimon, “Our Rabbi, Moses son of Maimon.” [Maimonides' Principles, edited by Aryeh Kaplan, Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America,, p. 3].
Here is what Maimonides (Rambam) taught concerning saving people’s lives, especially concerning saving the lives of gentiles and Christians, or even Jews who dared to deny the “divine inspiration” of the Talmud:
Maimonides, Mishnah Torah, (Moznaim Publishing Corporation, Brooklyn, New York, 1990, Chapter 10, English Translation), p. 184: “Accordingly, if we see an idolater (gentile) being swept away or drowning in the river, we should not help him. If we see that his life is in danger, we should not save him.” The Hebrew text of the Feldheim 1981 edition of Mishnah Torah states this as well.
Immediately after Maimonides’ admonition that it is a duty for Jews not to save a drowning or perishing gentile, he informs us of the Talmudic duty of Jews towards Christians, and also towards Jews who deny the Talmud. Maimonides, Mishnah Torah, (Chapter 10), p. 184:
“It is a mitzvah [religious duty], however, to eradicate Jewish traitors, minnim, and apikorsim, and to cause them to descend to the pit of destruction, since they cause difficulty to the Jews and sway the people away from God, as did Jesus of Nazareth and his students, and Tzadok, Baithos, and their students. May the name of the wicked rot.”
The Jewish publisher’s commentary accompanying the preceding statement of Maimonides states that Jesus was an example of a min (plural: minnim).
The commentary also states that the students of Tzadok were defined as those Jews who deny the truth of the Talmud and who uphold only the written law (i.e. the Old Testament).
According to Maimonides’ Principles, p. 5, Maimonides “spent twelve years extracting every decision and law from the Talmud, and arranging them all into 14 systematic volumes. The work was finally completed in 1180, and was called Mishnah Torah, or “Code of the Torah.”
Maimonides taught in another part of the Mishnah Torah that gentiles are not human: “Man alone, and not vessels, can contract uncleanness by carriage. …The corpse of a gentile, however, does not convey uncleanness by overshadowing. …a gentile does not contract corpse uncleanness; and if a gentile touches, carries, or overshadows a corpse he is as one who did not touch it.
“To what is this like? It is like a beast which touches a corpse or overshadows it. And this applies not to corpse uncleanness only but to any other kind of uncleanness: neither gentiles nor cattle are susceptible to any uncleanness.” (The Code of Maimonides, vol. 10, translated by Herbert Danby, Yale University Press, New Haven, 1954, pp. 8-9).
The Schindler’s List Quote
The Talmud (i.e., the Babylonian Talmud) text of Sanhedrin 37a restricts the duty to save life to saving only Jewish lives.
The book on Hebrew censorship, written by Jews themselves (Hesronot Ha-shas), notes that some Talmud texts use the universalist phrase:
“Whoever destroys the life of a single human being…it is as if he had destroyed an entire world; and whoever preserves the life of a single human being …it is as if he had preserved an entire world.”
However, Hesronot Ha-shas points out that these are not the authentic words of the original Talmud.
In other words, the preceding universalist rendering is not the authentic text of the Talmud and thus, for example, this universalist version which Steven Spielberg in his famous movie, Schindler’s List attributed to the Talmud (and which became the motto of the movie on posters and in advertisements), is a hoax and constitutes propaganda intended to give a humanistic gloss to a Talmud which is, in its essence, racist and chauvinist hate literature.
In the authentic, original Talmud text it states that “whoever preserves a single soul of Israel, it is as if he had preserved an entire world” (emphasis supplied). The authentic Talmud text sanctions only the saving of Jewish lives.
Jewish Deception and Dissimulation
The response of the orthodox rabbis to documentation regarding the racism and hatred in the Talmud is simply to brazenly lie, in keeping with the Talmud’s Baba Kamma 113a which states that Jews may use lies (“subterfuges”) to circumvent a Gentile.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center, a multi-million dollar rabbinical propaganda center dispatched Rabbi Daniel Landes in 1995 to deny that the Talmud dehumanizes non-Jews. “This is utter rot,” he said. His proof? Why, his word, of course.

This lying to “circumvent a gentile” has a long patrimony in Judaism. Take for example the 13th century Talmud debate in Paris between Nicholas of Donin, a Jewish convert to Christianity, whom Hyam Maccoby admits had “a good knowledge of the Talmud” (Judaism on Trial, p.26) and Rabbi Yehiel. Yehiel was not under threat of death, bodily injury, imprisonment or fine. Yet he brazenly lied during the course of the debate.
When asked by Donin whether there were attacks on Jesus in the Talmud, Yehiel denied that there were any. Donin, a Hebrew scholar, knew this to be false. Hyam Maccoby, a 20th century Jewish commentator on the debate, defends Rabbi Yehiel’s lying in this way:
“The question may be asked, however, whether Yehiel really believed that Jesus was not mentioned in the Talmud, or whether he put this forward as an ingenious ploy in the desperate situation in which he found himself…It would certainly have been pardonable of the rabbi to attempt some condonation in which he did not fully believe, to prevent such tyannical proceedings by one religious culture against another.” (Judaism on Trial, p. 28.).
This is how Jewish denial of the existence of hateful Talmud texts is justified to this day. A fanciful word for Jewish lying is conjured (“condonation”) and deemed “pardonable,” while any scrutiny of Jewish holy books by Christian investigators is characterized as a “tyrannical proceeding.” Of course Jewish attacks on the New Testament do not qualify as a “tyrannical proceeding.” Only Christian criticism of the Talmud qualifies as tyrannical and the response of the Jewish apologists is to lie.
(This is certainly not true of all Jewish people. Dr. Israel Shahak of Hebrew University has written an entire book –Jewish History, Jewish Relgion — which documents the anti-gentile and anti-Christian polemic in sacred Jewish writings such as the Talmud).
However much the ADL or Wiesenthal Center lie and deny, the fact is, in this writing, we have furnished the reader with documentation direct from the original Talmudic texts, as well as from the writings of the Jews’ own “greatest” Talmud authority, Moses Maimonides.
In 1994, Rabbi Tzvi Marx, director of Applied Education at the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem, made a remarkable admission concerning how Jews in the past have issued two sets of texts: the authentic Talmudic texts with which they instruct their own youth in the Talmud schools (kollel) and “censured and amended” versions which they disseminate to the gullible goyim (non-Jews) for public consumption.
Rabbi Marx states that in the version of Maimonides’ teachings published for public consumption, Maimonides is made to say that whoever kills a human being transgresses the law.
But, Rabbi Marx points out “…this only reflects the censured and amended printed text, whereas the original manuscripts have it only as “whoever kills an Israelite.” (Tikkun: A Bi-Monthly Jewish Critique, May-June, 1994).
The Jewish book, Hesronot Ha-shas (“that which is removed from the Talmud,” cf. William Popper, The Censorship of Hebrew Books, p. 59), is important in this regard.
Hesronot Ha-shas was reprinted in 1989 by Sinai Publishing of Tel-Aviv. Hesronot Ha-shas is valuable because it lists both the original Talmud texts that were later changed or omitted, and the falsified texts nowadays being cited for gentile consumption as authentic.
Popper (pp. 58-59), states: “It was not always that long passages…were censored…but often single words alone were omitted; …Often, in these cases, another method of correction was used in place of omission–substitution.”
For example, the translators of the English Soncino version of the Talmud sometimes translate the Hebrew word goyim (gentiles) under any number of disguise words such as “heathen, Cuthean, Egyptian, idolater” etc. But these are actually references to gentiles (all non-Jews). In footnote 5 of the Soncino edition Talmud it is stated: “Cuthean (Samaritan) was here substituted for the original goy…”
It is the standard disinformation practice of the Pharisees to deny the existence of the racist Talmudic passages we have cited, in order to claim that such passages are the “fabrications of anti-Semites.”
In 1994, the 80 year old Dowager Lady Jane Birdwood was arrested and prosecuted in a criminal court in London, England for the “crime” of publishing in her pamphlet, The Longest Hatred, the truthful statement that the Talmud contains anti-gentile and anti-Christian passages. In the course of her thought-crime trial, which was ignored by the U.S. media, a rabbi was called as a prosecution witness. The rabbi proceeded to flatly deny that the Talmud contained anti-gentile or anti-Christian passages and on the basis of the rabbi’s “prestige,” the old woman was sentenced to three months in jail and fined the equivalent of $1,000.
Dr. Israel Shahak, in his work, Jewish History, Jewish Religion and Bernard Pick in Jesus in the Talmud, (pp. 57; 105-106), have both confirmed the hate and racism contained in the Talmud. Those Jews who deny the actual contents of the Talmud are liars.
“Judeo-Christian” Response to the Talmud
Neither the modern popes or the modern heads of Protestantism, have ever insisted that the rabbis of Judaism repudiate or condemn the racism in the Talmud or the murderous hate for Christians and gentiles expressed within it. On the contrary, the heads of Churchianity have urged the followers of Christ to obey, honor and support the followers of the Talmud. Therefore, it should be obvious that these Catholic and Protestant leaders are the worst betrayers of Jesus Christ on earth today. (Cf. Matthew 23:13-15; I Thess. 2:14-16; Titus 1:14; Luke 3:8-9; Rev. 3:9).
Non-Jews are “Supernal Refuse”
Moreover, not only Christians but non-Christians of all races are regarded as “supernal refuse” (garbage) by Talmud teachers such as the founder of Habad-Lubavitch, Rabbi Shneur Zalman.
This was analyzed in the Jewish magazine, New Republic: “…there are some powerful ironies in Habad’s new messianic universalism, in its mission to the gentiles; and surely the most unpleasant of them concerns Habad’s otherwise undisguised and even racial contempt for the goyim.
“…medieval Jewish theologians–most notably the poet and philosopher Judah Ha-Levi in twelfth-century Spain and the mystic Judah Loewe in sixteenth-century Prague–sought to define the Jewish distinction racially rather than spiritually…this…view, according to which there is something innately superior about the Jews, was rehabilitated in its most extreme form by Shneur Zalman of Lyady. The founder of Lubavitcher Hasidism taught that there is a difference of essence between the souls of Jews and the souls of gentiles, that only in the Jewish soul does there reside a spark of divine vitality.
“As for the goyim…Zalman’s attitude (was): ‘Gentile souls are of a completely different and inferior order. They are totally evil, with no redeeming qualities whatsoever.’
“Consequently, references to gentiles in Rabbi Shneur Zalman’s teachings are invariably invidious. Their (non-Jews) material abundance derives from supernal refuse. Indeed, they themselves derive from refuse, which is why they are more numerous than the Jews, as the pieces of chaff outnumber the kernels…All Jews were innately good, all gentiles innately evil.
“…Moreover, this characterization of gentiles as being inherently evil, as being spiritually as well as biologically inferior to Jews, has not in any way been revised in later Habad writing.” –The New Republic, May 4, 1992. Also cf. Roman A. Foxbrunner, Habad: The Hasidism of Shneur Zalman of Lyady (Northvale, New Jersey, Jason Aronson, Inc., 1993) pp. 108-109.
U.S. Government Lays Groundwork for Talmudic Courts
The government under Reagan, Bush and Clinton, has provided, under the euphemism of education (for example, House Joint Resolution 173 and Public Law 102-14), a groundwork for the establishment of ‘courts of justice’ to be governed by disciples of Shneur Zalman’s Habad successor, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson. These courts are to be convened allegedly under the “Noachide Laws” (proscriptions against idolatry based on the covenant with Noah). But under the Talmudic interpretation of the Noachide Laws, the worship of Jesus is to be forbidden, since such worship is regarded as idolatry (cf. Alan Unterman, Dictionary of Jewish Lore and Legend, p. 148..); all non-Jews in the U.S. would have the legal status of ger toshav (resident alien).
American taxpayers’ subsidy of the so-called “U.S. Holocaust Museum” in Washington, D.C., is yet another indicator of the gradual establishment of a state religion in the U.S. This “holocaust museum” excludes any reference to holocausts perpetrated by Jewish Communists against Christians in Russia and Eastern Europe, from 1917 onward.
The focus of the ‘museum’ is almost entirely on Jewish suffering. Holocausts perpetrated by Zionist Jews against Arabs in Lebanon in 1982 and in Palestine since 1948 are nowhere to be found in the exhibits of the “Holocaust Museum,” which functions more like a synagogue than a repository of objective historical information.
Jewish Law Requires Christians to be Executed
Israeli “Torah scholars” have ruled that:
“The Torah maintains that the righteous of all nations have a place in the World to Come. But not all religious Gentiles earn eternal life by virtue of observing their religion…And while the Christians do generally accept the Hebrew Bible as truly from God, many of them (those who accept the so-called divinity of Jesus) are idolaters according to the Torah, punishable by death, and certainly will not enjoy the World to Come.”
–Israeli Mechon-Mamre website, Oct. 28, 1999; 12 Hayyim Vital St., Jerusalem, Occupied Palestine. (“Mechon Mamre is a small group of Torah scholars in Israel…”).
[Note: we have printed and preserved in our files a hard copy of this statement from the Israeli "Mechon-Mamre Torah Scholars," as it appeared on their website at http://www.mechon-mamre.org/jewfaq/gentiles.htm on Oct. 28, 1999, in the event that denials are later issued and the statement itself suppressed].
Jewish Superstitions
It is not for nothing that the authoritative edition of the Talmud is known as the Babylonian Talmud. As Christians misled by their Judaizing preachers and popes are increasingly consulting Jewish rabbinical sources for a “pure” understanding of the Old Testament, they are unknowingly consulting the occult.
Judaism is the religion of the Pharisees and the patrimony of Babylon, from whence the Talmudic and Kabbalistic traditions of Judaism ultimately derive. Orthodox Judaism’s other sacred book, the Kabbalah, is filled with astrological teachings, fortune-telling, gematria, necromancy and demonology.
The photograph on the cover of this publication’s hard copy version shows an orthodox Jew performing a ritual to transfer his sins to the chicken he is waving over his head. This is pernicious superstition.
Furthermore, the Israeli “Star of David,” is actually nothing of the kind, but rather an occult hexagram, a yantra of the androgyne, which became associated with the Khazars in 14th century Bohemia. (The misnamed “state of Israel” was founded in 1948 in an alliance between Jewish Communists and atheistic Zionists, with crucial U.N. recognition provided by Soviet Communist dictator Joseph Stalin).
Christians might find it eye-opening to visit a Hasidic Jewish area during “Purim” and observe the grotesque, Halloween-like cavorting. Though the Purim festival uses the Book of Esther as its supposed proof-text, in practice the Jewish celebration of Purim is little more than a Bacchanal (cf. “Superstitions said legacy from Jewish ancestors,” Canadian Jewish News, Nov. 16, 1989, p. 58..).
Orthodox rabbis place curses, cast spells and imagine they have powers greater than God, derived from their study of the Sefer Yezriah, (a book of Kabbalistic magic). Christians are trafficking in Babylonian paganism when they defer to the rabbis of Judaism.

Jewish Racism towards Non-Jews as expressed in the Talmud

“The modern Jew is the product of the Talmud…”
“Babylonian Talmud”, published by the Boston Talmud Society, p. XII
The Jews refer to the remainder of Earths inhabitants, the non-Jewish peoples, as “Gentiles”, “Goyim”. Let’s see what the Jewish Talmud teaches the Jews concerning the non-Jewish majority, i.e. those who are not part of Jahve’s “Chosen People”:
“The Jews are called human beings, but the non-Jews are not humans. They are beasts.”
Talmud: Baba mezia, 114b
“The Akum (non-Jew) is like a dog. Yes, the scripture teaches to honor the the dog more than the non-Jew.”
Ereget Raschi Erod. 22 30
“Even though God created the non-Jew they are still animals in human form. It is not becoming for a Jew to be served by an animal. Therfore he will be served by animals in human form.”
Midrasch Talpioth, p. 255, Warsaw 1855
“A pregnant non-Jew is no better than a pregnant animal.”
Coschen hamischpat 405
“The souls of non-Jews come from impure sprits and are called pigs.”
Jalkut Rubeni gadol 12b
“Although the non-Jew has the same body structure as the Jew, they compare with the Jew like a monkey to a human.”
Schene luchoth haberith, p. 250 b
“If you eat with a Gentile, it is the same as eating with a dog.”
Tosapoth, Jebamoth 94b
“If a Jew has a non-Jewish servant or maid who dies, one should not express sympathy to the Jew. You should tell the Jew: “God will replace ‘your loss’, just as if one of his oxen or asses had died”.”
Jore dea 377, 1
“Sexual intercourse between Gentiles is like intercourse between animals.”
Talmud Sanhedrin 74b
“It is permitted to take the body and the life of a Gentile.”
Sepher ikkarim III c 25
“It is the law to kill anyone who denies the Torah. The Christians belong to the denying ones of the Torah.”
Coschen hamischpat 425 Hagah 425. 5
“A heretic Gentile you may kill outright with your own hands.”
Talmud, Abodah Zara, 4b
“Every Jew, who spills the blood of the godless (non-Jews), is doing the same as making a sacrifice to God.”
Talmud: Bammidber raba c 21 & Jalkut 772
