The Jesus Narrative In The Talmud

The Jesus Narrative In The Talmud
Written by Gil Student

Introduction
There are four main passages in the Talmud that are alleged by some
to discuss the story of Jesus’ life and death.  What we will do here
is to analyze closely these passages and see the reasons one may or may
not attribute these stories to the life of Jesus.  [...]

Isaiah 53 and the “Suffering Servant.”

If you read the text correctly, Isaiah is clearly telling us how the nations of the world will react when they witness the future messianic-redemption of the Jewish people.

In a similar fashion to the mistranslation of the “Virgin Birth” , Christian translators have manipulated many parts of Scripture to “force” it to conform with their prejudicial notion that it is replete with references to Jesus if one were merely open-minded enough to see it.

Christian Proof-Texting

It is always important to make an educated decision. When examining a Missionary proof text you must look at the context and to original text.

Daniel 9 - A True Biblical Interpretation

The book of Daniel is filled with Messianic illusions and calculations that even left Daniel pondering their meanings. Additionally, a large proportion of the book is written in Aramaic rather than the traditional Hebrew adding to the complexity of these biblical texts.
