What the Talmud is and how it relates to Jesus and early Christians This volume surveys how the Talmud has been read, interpreted, and even challenged by scholars and commentators. It shows how Jewish sources have treated Christian claims, beliefs, and practices, and what modern readers can learn about the record and the debates surrounding it.
The book presents editions, translations, and textual notes that shape how the Talmud is understood today. It also explores topics such as astrology, amulets, and demons, and it discusses how later readers have defended or criticized the Talmud’s contents. It offers context for readers who want to understand how these ancient texts relate to broader religious history and interfaith dialogue.

To do this we have divided the matter into two parts. The first tries to show what the Talmud is, by giving a succinct history of the development of Jewish traditionalism, which culminated in the Talmud, that wonderful monument of human industry, human wisdom, and human folly, as Milman calls it ;and in order to dispel erroneous views concerning the Talmud, we have arrayed the opinions of such scholars as Milman, Farrar, Geikie, Schaff, Delitzsch and others, whom no one will accuse of partiality. As a connecting link we have inserted those passages of the Talmud which treat of theM essiah, because we believe that their contents were more or less influenced by Christian thought, and that they do not express the views of the Jews concerning theM essiah before and at the Christian era. For, says Mr.
