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
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).
End quote from http://www.noahide.com/yeshu.htm (Lubavitch website) June 20, 2000.
[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 on 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.
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. On one of his whorehouse romps, Rabbi Eleazar leanred that there was one particular prostitute
residing in a whorehouse near the sea, who would receive a bag of money for her services. He took a bag of money and went
to her, crossing seven rivers to do so. During their intercourse the prostitute farted. After this the whore told Rabbi Eleazar:
"Just as this gas will never return to my anus, Rabbi Eleazar will never get to heaven."
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. 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 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).
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 legislation by 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."
--Israeli Mechon-Mamre website, June 26, 2000; 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 June

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 family sue
him in a rabbinical court, in which the affair would be aired. He has said that no one in the family was prepared to take
up the challenge.
"In the conversation with La'isha, the father said that he was indeed a homosexual, 'But
I have had treatment and today I am no longer like that. All this is behind me.'
"In reply to a question as to whether he had sexual relations with minors, he replied: 'Perhaps
I will talk about that some other time.' He accused his son Shaiya of being 'the only one who is after me. He has destroyed
my life...He wrote this only for the money. He wanted money from me...Because of him I separated from my wife.'
"Shaiya's sister, Rivka Hubert, spoke with great anger to the La'isha reporter about
the fact that her brother had revealed the names of the persons involved, and declared: 'We deny everything it says in the
book."
