-
he 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 (1903-1993) |
-
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
-
Where a Jew Should Do Evil
-
-
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.
-
-
Penalty
for Disobeying Rabbis
-
-
Erubin
21b. Whosoever disobeys the rabbis
deserves death and will be punished by
being boiled in hot excrement in hell.
-
-
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).
-
-
-
[Note: we
have printed and preserved in our files
a hard copy of this statement from the
Lubavitch"Noah's Covenant Website," as
it appeared on their website at
http://www.noahide.com
http://www.noahide.com n June
20, 2000, in the event that denials are
later issued and the statement itself
suppressed].
-
-
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.

whore in the world that the Talmudic
sage Rabbi Eleazar has not had sex with.
On one of his whorehouse romps, Rabbi
Eleazar leanred that there was one

receive a bag of money for her services.
He took a bag of money and went to her,

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. Here are 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 (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 (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 portion of the Mosaic law
which forbids applying the holy oil to
men.
-
-
The Talmud
states that it is not a sin to apply the
holy oil to Gentiles, because Gentiles
are not human beings (i.e. are not of
Adam).
-
-
Another
example from tractate 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 Old
Testament Mosaic law states that
touching a human corpse or the grave of
a human imparts uncleanness to those who
touch it. But the Talmud teaches that if
a Jew touches the grave of a Gentile,
the Jew is not rendered unclean, since
Gentiles are not human (not of Adam).
-
-
From Baba
Mezia 114b: ""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. For it has been taught by
Rabbi Simon ben Yohai: '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)."
-
-
Ezekiel
34:31 is the alleged Biblical proof text
repeatedly cited in the preceding three
Talmud passages. But Ezekiel 34:31 does
not in fact support the Talmudic notion
that only Israelites are human. What
these rabbinical, anti-Gentile racists
and ideologues have done in asserting
the preceding absurdities about Gentiles
is distort an Old Testament passage in
order to justify their bigotry.
-
-
In
Berakoth 58a the Talmud uses Ezekiel
23:20 as proof of the sub-human status
of gentiles. 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
ofMishnah 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).
-
-
Maimonides, Mishneh Torah, Hilchot
Rotze'ach 2:11: "A Jew who killed a
righteous gentile is not executed in a
court of law. It says in Exodus 21:14,
'If a man schemes against his fellow man
and kills the man deliberately, take him
away from the altar and put him to
death.' But a gentile is not considered
a man, and even more so, a Jew is not
executed for killing an unrighteous
gentile."
-
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 their sacred texts is simply
to brazenly lie, in keeping with the
Talmud's Baba Kamma 113a which states
that Jews may use lies ("subterfuge") 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.
-
-
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" ( "The Jews 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 and
Aramaic 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
tyrannical proceedings by one religious
culture against another." ( Maccoby,
"The Jews 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."
-
-
In 1994,
Rabbi Tzvi Marx, director of Applied
Education at the Shalom Hartman
Institute in Jerusalem, made a
remarkable admission concerning how
Jewish rabbis in the past have issued
two sets of texts: the authentic
Talmudic texts with which they instruct
their own youth in the Talmud schools (yeshiviot)
and "censured and amended" versions
which they disseminate to gullible
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"), is important
in this regard. (Cf. William Popper, The
Censorship of Hebrew Books p. 59).
-
-
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 cited for Gentile consumption as
authentic.
-
-
Historian
William Popper 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." (Cf.
William Popper, The Censorship of Hebrew
Books pp. 58-59).
-
-
For
example, the translators of the English
Soncino version of the Talmud sometimes
render the Hebrew word goyim (Gentiles)
under any number of disguise words such
as "heathen, Cuthean, Kushite, Egyptian,
idolater" etc. But these are actually
references to Gentiles (all non-Jews).
Footnotes for certain passages in the
Soncino Talmud translation state: "Cuthean
(Samaritan) was here substituted for the
original goy..."
-
-
The heirs
of the Pharisees often deny the
existence of the Talmud passages here
cited, in order to brazenly claim that
such passages are the "fabrications of
anti-Semites."
-
-
In 1994,
the 80 year old 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. (She was
accused of violating the Public Order
Act of 1986).
-
-
In the
course of her Orwellian 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," this elderly and ailing
woman was sentenced to three months in
jail and fined the equivalent of $1,000.
-
-
"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
-
-
"Our"
government under Presidents 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 Talmudic "courts of
justice" to be administered by disciples
of Shneur Zalman's Chabad successor,
Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson.
-
-
Maimonides
ruled that it is a Jewish court -- or a
court appointed by Jewish authority
--that enforces obedience and passes
judgment on Gentiles, as well as
promulgating legislationby court order
for that purpose. Maimonides further
decreed that any non-Jewish nation "not
subject to our jurisdiction" (tahaht
yadeinu) will be the target of Jewish
holy war. (Cf. Hilkhot Melakhim 8:9-10;
10:11. Also cf. Gerald J. Blidstein,
"Holy War in Maimonidean Law," in
Perspectives on Maimonides [Oxford,
England: Oxford Univ. Press, 1991].
-
-
These
courts are to be convened allegedly
under the "Noahide Laws" (proscriptions
against idolatry supposedly based on the
covenant with Noah). The U.S. presidents
and Congress urged the adoption of the
"Noahide" Laws as interpreted by
Chabad-Lubavitch Grand Rabbi Schneerson.
-
-
Prof.
Easterly of the Southern University Law
Center, a Jewish legal expert, has
compared this Public law 102-14 to the
"first rays of dawn" which "evidence the
rising of a still unseen sun."
-
-
The Jewish
Encyclopedia envisages a Noahide regime
as a possible world order immediately
preceding the universal reign of the
Talmud.
-
-
It has to
be understood that we are not dealing
with the Noah of the Bible when the
religion of Judaism refers to "Noahide
law," but the Noahide law as understood
and interpreted by the absolute system
of falsification that constitutes the
Talmud.
-
-
Under the
Talmud's counterfeit Noahide Laws, the
worship of Jesus is forbidden under
penalty of death, since such worship of
Christ is condemned by Judaism as
idolatry. Meanwhile various forms of
incest are permitted under the Talmudic
understanding of the Noahide code.
(Enziklopediya Talmudit, note 1, pp.
351-352).
-
-
Furthermore, all non-Jews would have the
legal status of ger toshav ("resident
alien," cf. Alan Unterman, Dictionary of
Jewish Lore and Legend [London: Thames
and Hudson, 1991],p. 148), even in their
own land; as for example in occupied
Palestine where newly arrived Khazars
from Russia have an automatic right to
housing and citizenship, while two
million Palestinian refugees who either
fled or were expelled by the Israelis,
are forbidden the right of return.
-
-
Resident
alien status has been clearly delineated
in scholarly articles in leading Jewish
publications. For example, Hebrew
University Professor Mordechai Nisan,
basing his exposition on Maimonides,
stated that a non-Jew permitted to
reside in a land ruled by Jewish law
"must accept paying a tax and suffering
the humiliation of servitude."
-
-
If
Gentiles refuse to live a life of
inferiority, then this signals their
rebellion and the unavoidable necessity
of Jewish warfare against their very
presence. [Cf. Mordechai Nisan,
Kivunim(official publication of the
World Zionist Organization), August,
1984, pp. 151-156].
-
-
At a
symposium ("Is Autonomy for Resident
Aliens Feasible?") organized by Israeli
Minister of Education Shulamit Aloni,
the Israeli Chief Rabbi Shlomo Goren
repeated the Talmudic teaching on
resident aliens: that Judaism forbids
"granting any national rights" to them.
He ruled that such "Autonomy is
tantamount to a denial of the Jewish
religion." (Nadav Shraggai, Ha'aretz,
Oct. 14, 1992).
-
-
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 Jewish 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 Israelis against Arabs in Lebanon and
Palestine since 1948 are nowhere to be
found in the exhibits of the U.S.
"Holocaust Museum," which functions more
like a synagogue than a repository of
objective historical information.
-
-
It is
through the rapid emergence of this
ostensibly secular but all-pervasive "Holocaustianity"
-- whereby the religion of Judaism is
gaining enormous power and influence as
mankind's supreme ethos and the creed of
God's Holy People.
-
-
Jewish Law
Requires Christians 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."

-
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.

Sodomy in
the synagogue
-
-
-
-
From a
report published in the Hebrew language
Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz
-
-
"...for
many years, (Talmud scribe) Yaakov
Yitzhak Brizel...sodomized
ultra-Orthodox boys. The greatest rabbis
knew - and did nothing...
-
-
"At the
age of 11, Moisheleh, the strongest
fellow in the talmud torah (school for
ultra-Orthodox boys), went up to Shaiya
Brizel and said to him: 'Kid, I want you
know that your father is not the holy
man you think he is. He is a homo.' ...Brizel
was a scion of the Brizel family, which
founded ...the mysterious organization
that imposes moral order on the
ultra-Orthodox ghetto...
-
-
"Had the
father, Yaakov Yitzhak Brizel
...contented himself with homosexual
relations with adults, it is reasonable
to suppose that we would never have
heard his son's story.
-
-
"However,
in his book, The Silence of the
Ultra-Orthodox, published a few weeks
ago, the son claims that for decades his
father ...sodomized yeshiva students. He
committed the act in empty synagogues
during the hours between prayers and in
other places.
-
-
"The
greatest of the ultra-Orthodox
rabbis...like Rabbi Landau and the
halachic sage Shmuel Halevi Hausner of
Bnei Brak, knew and kept silent. The
father was a Hasid heart and soul, and
went to a number of rebbes.... the twin
brother of the rebbe from Rehovot, the
Rebbe of Kretschnif in Kiryat Gat, was
happy to accept the father among his
followers. Ultimately, claims Brizel, it
was not easy for the Rebbe from Kiryat
Gat to be picky when he could win such a
respected adherent.
-
-
"...The
proud father with the look of an honored
rebbe, who observed all the commandments
from the slightest to the most
important, used to pray at a certain
yeshiva with the young boys. There,
claims Shaiya Brizel, he hunted his
victims. When the head of the yeshiva
discovered the true reason that the
respected Torah scribe was praying
fervently at his yeshiva, he did not
contact the police...
-
-
"Before
the publication of his book, Shaiya
Brizel met with the yeshiva head. 'You
are right that we covered up for him,'
admitted the man. 'I and a few other
rabbis...I was busy trying to calm
things down and hushing up the affair so
that it would not get publicized.'
-
-
"(The son)
published the book using real names. His
entire family and almost all the rabbis
appear under their own names. Only the
names of some of the localities and the
head of the yeshiva are disguised. To
protect himself from a legal point of
view, Brizel held a series of
conversations with members of his family
and rabbis, in which he demanded
explanations of why they had covered up
for his father's misbehavior. He
secretly recorded all these
conversations, even with his mother.
-
-
"If I had
written without the names it would have
been fiction and this certainly did not
suit me," he explained. 'I wanted things
to change, for ultra-Orthodox society to
know that it can attempt to hide things
and be hidden, but even if it takes 30
years, a Golem will always rise up
against its creator and reveal
everything. In this case, I was the
Golem.'
-
-
"When
Rachel Brizel, the daughter of a good
Bnei Brak family, married an arranged
match from the glorious Brizel family,
she had no idea that she was destroying
her own life. After six months, she
caught her husband having sex with
another man. In that case, at least it
was with an adult.
-
-
"Shaiya
Brizel relates that some of the boys
with whom his father had relations sent
letters of complaint to their own
fathers; in the discreet ultra-Orthodox
society they had no one else to whom
they could complain.
-
Shaiya
Brizel: author of a book telling of
sodomy in the synagogue
-
-
"When she
read these letters, my mother went out
of her mind,' writes Brizel. 'Every such
letter made her want to demand a
divorce. Again and again batteries of
mediators, the Brizel rabbis, would show
up, whose job it was to calm her down so
that, heaven forbid, she would not
destroy the good name of the Brizel
family.
-
-
"They
could live with the fact that one of
their own had raped minors, but for them
divorce was an impossible situation.'
-
-
"...Twice,
once during prayers in a synagogue, and
once during a Gemara (Talmud) study hour
at Rabbi Eliezer Shach's Ponevezh
Yeshiva, ultra-Orthodox men who were
strangers to him touched his sexual
organ, presumably on the assumption that
he followed in his father's footsteps.
The first time, he made a fuss, only to
discover that the only thing that
interested the people there was to hush
the whole thing up. The second time, he
made do with a whispered warning to the
man.
-
-
"Shaiya
Brizel is now 36 and the father of
three; he works as an accountant.
-
-
"His
father, 65, was forced to leave home
several years ago and return to his
elderly parents' apartment. Shaiya wrote
this book after a suicide attempt in
June.
-
-
'For all
those years I was half dead. For the
past five years I have been getting
psychological treatment. During my talks
with the psychologist I decided that I
was going to spew out all this ugliness
in the form of a book.'
-
-
"He took
into account that there would be violent
reactions to the book...which only came
out a few weeks ago...Brizel suffers
from a serious heart defect, which could
cause his death. As a way of protecting
himself, he has deposited a letter with
three lawyers that contains serious
allegations about the Eda Haredit, and
he has informed the relevant people.
-
-
"Recently,
he has moved to a new apartment, and he
lives in the National Religious sector
of a mixed community of National
Religious and ultra-Orthodox families.
Naturally, he started praying at the
only Hasidic synagogue in the
settlement. After the book came out,
associates of the local rebbe (rabbi)
informed him that he was persona non
grata.
-
-
"Ironically, this same rebbe had come to
the area after being compelled to leave
several other communities on suspicion
of having sodomized his pupils. In
ultra-Orthodox society, revealing that
acts of sodomy have been committed is a
far graver offense than committing them.
-
-
"On the
day the book was published, Brizel met
with the head of the Hachemei Lublin
Yeshiva, Rabbi Avraham Vazner. 'He told
me that publishing the book was a
million times worse than what my father
had done...'
-
-
"Ha'aretz
has been unable to obtain a response
from Rabbi Yaakov Yitzhak Brizel. At his
parents' home, a woman replied: "We
don't care. Shaiya is a liar and there
is nothing more to be said."
-
-
"Ha'aretz
also requested the Brizels' response
through the Eda Haredit activist Yehuda
Meshi- Zahav. By the time the article
went to press, there was no response
through this channel either.
-
-
"Several
weeks ago the father responded to the
women's magazine La'isha, saying that he
would sue the publishers, which has not
yet happened. It is unlikely that it
will happen.
-
-
"Shaiya
Brizel was ready to put off publication
of the book, on condition that the
