The Talmud on Christians, by the Jewish convert to Christ, Dr. Benjamin H. Freedman.
It is important to note that the Babylonian Talmud is the foundation of modern Judaism and forms the central core of studies for Rabbinical students even today. The following teachings are part of the curriculum in every Orthodox seminary. The antichristian fanaticism of the modern state of Israel is based on the antichrist Babylonian Talmud. The Zionist murder and disposition of Palesinian Chritians and Moslems is justified by the teachings of he Babylonian Talmud. Prime Minister Netanyahu, the present Prime Minister of Israel is a student and follower of the Talmud.
Although, it is true that some people calling themselves "Christians" have inflicted murder, thievery and abuses on Jews in the last 2000 years, there is no Christian teachings or literature to support such behaviour by Christians. This type of behaviour against any non-christian by Christians is condemned by all true Christians. The Jewish Talmud, on the other hand, condones and encourages hatred against Christ and against Christians and all other peoples and religions. We can thank God that many members of Reformed, Conservative and so-called enlightened Judaism do not subscribe to these teachings of the Talmud.

THE TALMUD on Christians
"The Talmud Unmasked, The Secret Rabbinical Teachings
Concerning Christians," was written by Rev. I.B. Pranaitis, Master of
Theology and Professor of the Hebrew Language at the Imperial
Ecclesiastical Academy in Old St.
Petersburg, Russia. The Rev. Pranaitis was the greatest of the students of
the Talmud. His complete command of the Hebrew language qualified
him to analyze the Talmud as few men in history.
The Rev. Pranaitis scrutinized the Talmud for passages referring to
Jesus, Christians and the Christian faith. These passages were translated
by him into Latin. Hebrew lends itself to translation into Latin better than
it does directly into English. The translation of the passages of the Talmud
referring to Jesus, Christians and Christian faith were printed in Latin by
the Imperial Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg in 1893.
In order not to leave any loose ends on the subject of the Talmud's
reference to Jesus, to Christians and to the Christian faith I will below
summarize translations into English from the Latin texts of Rev. Pranaitis'
"The Talmud Unmasked, The Secret Rabbinical Teachings Concerning
Christians". It would require too much space to quote these passages
verbatim with their foot-notes form the Soncino Edition in English.
First I will summarize the references by Rev. Pranaitis referring to
Jesus in the Talmud in the original texts translated by him into Latin, and
from Latin into English:
--------------------------------------
Sanhedrin, 67a -- Jesus referred to as the son of Pandira, a soldier
Kallah, 1b. (18b) -- Jesus was illegitimate(bastard) and conceived during menstruation.
Sanhedrin, 67a -- Hanged on the eve of Passover. Toldath Jeschu. Birth
related in most shameful expressions
Abhodah Zarah II -- Referred to as the son of Pandira, a Roman soldier.
Schabbath XIV. Again referred to as the son of Pandira, the Roman.
Sanhedrin, 43a -- On the eve of Passover they hanged Jesus.
Schabbath, 104b -- Called a fool and no one pays attention to fools.
Toldoth Jeschu. Judas and Jesus engaged in quarrel with filth.
Sanhedrin, 103a. -- Suggested corrupts his morals and dishonors self.
Sanhedrin, 107b. -- Seduced, corrupted and destroyed Israel.
Zohar III, (282) -- Died like a beast and buried in animal's dirt heap.
Hilkoth Melakhim -- Attempted to prove Christians err in worship of Jesus
Abhodah Zarah, 21a -- Reference to worship of Jesus in homes

The above are a few selected from a very complicated arrangement in
which many references are obscured by intricate reasoning. The following
are a few summarized references to Christians and the Christian faith
although not always expressed in exactly that manner. There are eleven
names used in the Talmud for non-Talmud followers, by which Christians
are meant. Besides Nostrim, from Jesus the Nazarene, Christians are
called by all the names used in the Talmud to designate all non-"Jews":
Minim, Edom, Abhodan Zarah, Akum. Obhde Elilim, Nokrim, Amme
Haarets, Kuthim, Apikorosim, and Goim. Besides supplying the names by
which Christians are called in the Talmud, the passages quoted below
indicate what kind of people the Talmud pictures the Christians to be, and
