Scattered throughout the Talmud can be found quite a few references to Jesus — and they’re not flattering. In this lucid, richly detailed, and accessible book, Peter Schäfer examines how the rabbis of the Talmud read, understood, and used the New Testament Jesus narrative to assert Judaism’s superiority over Christianity.
The Talmudic stories contest Jesus’ claim to be the Messiah and Son of God, and maintain that he was rightfully executed as a blasphemer and idolater. Schäfer contends these stories betray a remarkable familiarity with the Gospels — especially Matthew and John — and represent a deliberate and sophisticated anti-Christian polemic that parodies the New Testament narratives.
He carefully distinguishes between Babylonian and Palestinian sources, arguing that the rabbis’ countermessage was possible only in the unique historical setting of Persian Babylonia, where the Jewish community lived in relative freedom.
