"Slanders of the Talmud are as old as the Talmud”

A Study in Avoidance Tactics

By Michael Hoffman

In the screenshot above, Yair Rosenberg, writing in the Judaic Tablet magazine of Dec. 17 quotes an excerpt from Black poet Alice Walker’s “It is Our Frightful Duty to Study the Talmud," and then announces that the poem is a “slander,” as well as a “malevolent attack of anti-Semitic origin."

The egoism in his assault on her poetry shines forth like a blinding truck light. We are the deer frozen in the headlights of his ipse dixit.

Mr. Rosenberg doesn’t so much as begin to answer the earnest questions in her poem. He resorts instead, to a kind of pre-fabricated axiom: all-decent-people-know-this-is-nothing-but-recycled-anti-Semitic lies.

That is the bullshitter’s con. Stall and bluster. Insinuate bad motives to those who dare to pose hard questions that demand an answer. 

The Avoidance Tactics

Why these avoidance tactics?

Because the answer to every question Alice poses, is yes.

Yes, Mr. Rosenberg, the Babylonian Talmud does indeed decree that 1. Jesus is in hell boiling in excrement, 2. that the Blessed Virgin Mary was a whore, and that 3. “Even the best of the goyim should all be killed.” 

How is bullshitter Rosenberg going to evade these truths? He can try to steer us toward a redacted Talmud Bavli text, but that would put his credibility in peril, since uncensored English translations that prove the veracity of the contents of the Talmud, such as the esteemed and accurate Steinsaltz edition, are readily available. 

Mockery is a stratagem that the Talmudic mentality puts forth as a substitute for truth.  That’s one “answer” — mocking Alice Walker as a myopic blunderer so sloppy she is seduced by tiresome and hateful libels. How do we know they are libels? The media tells us so. If we doubt the media, then we are cast as demons inhabiting an anti-Semitic hell.

The other tried and true tactic is censorship and suppression, lest there be a reckoning, which would consist in the realization of the concealed truth that Orthodox Judaism’s holiest book (far-surpassing the written Torah in authority) — the Mishnah and Gemara, i.e. the Torah sheBeal peh, a.k.a. the Talmud of Babylon —  is most definitely a book of ferocious racism, savage hatred and scurrilous pornography.

But rather than face those inconvenient truths and deal with them forthrightly, Yair Rosenberg and a thousand hacks of greater and lesser hack-aptitude almost always parrot, by way of reply, something along the lines of: 

Slanders of the Talmud are as old as the Talmud.

Slanders of the Talmud are as old as the Talmud.

Slanders of the Talmud are as old as the Talmud.

That’s the moronic doggerel that confronts Walker’s poetry of truth, for which the truth-teller is smeared, boycotted and ostracized.

Argument? Debate? Open inquiry? The Talmudic mentality does not permit those rights of a free society when they threaten the myth of benevolence they have woven around their sacred text, upon which rests an increasingly tottering house of cards. 

The grandees at the ADL, the SPLC, the Tablet and the other self-appointed arbiters of what is permissible for us to say and ask in America, don’t stoop to answer Alice Walker’s reasonable questions. 

They want us to believe that it is simply the case that she is a foolish bigot for having issued her queries in the first place: now say no more or your reputation will be permanently traduced. 

That’s the parrots’ answer to Alice.

Only uncensored Babylonian Talmud in English may be complete in a few years

By Michael Hoffman

If the Koren translation of Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz's Babylonian Talmud is as faithful to his text as was the Random House edition, and if all Steinsaltz volumes are printed, this will represent a milestone in the history of the publication of the Babylonian Talmud - the first complete edition in English which has not been redacted.

A little more than half way through the project, Random House stopped publication of the uncensored Steinsaltz Talmud after printing 21 volumes and a "reference guide," for reasons never fully explained. A set of those 21 Random House Steinsaltz volumes have commanded relatively high prices on the rare book market, when they can be located.

One reason for pressure perhaps being brought to bear on Random House may have been Steinsaltz's unprecedented candor.

Unlike the Schottenstein edition which is basically a whitewash, or the Soncino, which confines controversial passages to footnotes, Steinsaltz candidly translated the most revealing and troubling Talmud Bavli passages which, heretofore, had been concealed from gentiles, as well as those Judaics who did not read Aramaic and the middle Hebrew jargon in which the Babylonian Talmud is written.

Caveat: this Koren edition is not a reprint of the superb Random House translation. The 2012-2013 Koren edition of Steinsaltz represents a new English translation, and may or may not constitute a strictly uncensored rendering of Steinsaltz's Israeli Hebrew edition. It remains to be seen how faithful Koren will be to the Random House translation (we will exercise due diligence in comparing the two as the Koren volumes appear).

From our preliminary examination of the first five inaugural volumes, it appears that the Koren edition has not been censored. We began our analysis by turning to sensitive passages in tractate Berakhot. We started by examining the portions pertaining to the halachos of niddah (the vertiginously oppressive laws on menstruation), and the permission for the use of lies and deception — "circumventions by artifice" (Berakhot 31a [p. 205]). In these cases there was no evidence of redaction. However, we have not yet read the entire set (approximately 25 volumes yet to be printed), consequently our initial enthusiasm is, at this point, necessarily conditioned by the fact that we will need to examine the entire printing before we can say for certain that the Koren English version is faithful to Rabbi Steinsaltz's modern Hebrew version.

Our hope is that the Koren edition both accurately translates Steinsaltz and gives us the Steinsaltz Talmud tractates never published by Random House, in which case the Koren Talmud Bavli will represent a true landmark in the study of the Torah SheBeal Peh in English.

"Nazarene Judaism” rebrands Jesus Christ according to their counterfeit gospel

"Nazarene Judaism” 

by Michael Hoffman

www.revisionisthistory.org

This current move is a cunning strategy. I have also seen it in the pagan New Age movement where "the Christ" is embraced as a divine part of a "lineage" that includes Buddha and the Dalai Lama.

Lorraine Boettner predicted this circa 1957: they will have their Talmudic paganism and new-found ‘reverence' for Jesus (the semi-divine good man).

Our Lord Himself said: "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth" (Rev. 3:16).

Here is a nonsensical statement from this Nazarene Judaism blog:

Have the Jews really rejected Yeshua?  The only "Jesus" that most Jewish people have ever been exposed to is the "Jesus" that supposedly came to "free them from the bondage of the Law". Yes, they have rejected this Torahless Jesus, and rightly so. But most of them have never been exposed to the real Yeshua. (End quote).

Jesus didn't free anyone from the Torah of Yahweh. True. Jesus freed them from the spurious "Torah sheBeal Peh" of the man-made traditions of Babylon as encoded in the Mishnah, Gemara, Mishneh Torah, Shulchan Aruch, Tanya, Zohar etc. 

Notice that the "Nazarene Space" blog states that they will have their own New Testament, it will not be in Greek, but the "original  languages" of Hebrew and Aramaic. Really, the New Testament was first written in Hebrew and Aramaic? Textual falsification is key to gnostic diabolism and rabbinic diabolism.

Another statement from the blog, this one dripping in racial conceit and megalomania: "The Jewish people know that an anti-Torah Messiah is no Messiah at all, they know better than to accept the rank paganism attached to Gentile Christianity."

"The Jewish people know." Observe the self-worship and the insinuation of a collective racial wisdom. Notice that "gentile Christianity" is said to be pagan with the implication that a "Jewish Christianity" will be strictly in accordance with God's Word.

This kind of buncombe is an insult to the intelligence of anyone who knows anything fundamental about Orthodox Judaism's deep paganism, beginning with self-worship, and from there to astrology, amulets, curses, the evil eye, reincarnation and the idolization of the rebbe as wonder-worker. What of the money paid by devout Judaics for people to daven (pray) at the tombs of various rabbis considered wonder workers? What of the fellatio of the child by the mohel in the Hasidic bris? What of the overwhelming Kabbalah superstition endemic to Hasidism?

Orthodox Judaism in its Talmud is the religion of the soothsayers of Babylon. Read Judaism Discovered; Judaism's Strange Gods and our reprint of Prof. Alexander McCaul's, The Talmud Tested.

The Talmud Bavli is the blueprint of bureaucracy. The Talmud is anti-Jewish because it imposes tyrannical micro-management of Judaic daily life. Jesus came to free the Jews from dead rituals prescribed by men to enslave people to the cult of man. The Torah of Jesus is found in the New Testament's fulfillment of the Old Testament. Rabbinic Judaism's ersatz “Torah" is found, to give but one instance, in the dictatorial, trivial, legalistic, mind-numbing Shabbos (Sabbath) observance concocted by Pharisees and their rabbinic heirs. Here is the letter of the halacha that kills the human spirit.

Gentile Christianity, so execrated by "Nazarene Judaism," rightly fled from this template of dictatorship, out of which sprang Bolshevik Leninism and many other destructive bureaucracies.

The "Nazarene Judaism" blog quotes Judaic Prof. Daniel Boyarin as follows: "Christology, or the early ideas about Christ, is also a Jewish discourse and not–until much later–an anti-Jewish discourse at all."

Jesus, Mary and the apostles were all Jews, so where is the anti-Jewish discourse? To the extent that first century Jews rejected the clear evidence that Jesus was the Moshiach (Messiah-Christ of Israel), they bore guilt for His crucifixion. The generations bearing that guilt are long dead, having largely perished in the Roman assaults on Jerusalem in 70 and 135 A.D.  Today the guilt for denying the doctrine and resurrection of the Son of God, Jesus Christ, is endemic not to people but to ideology, wherein is counseled rebellion against God; more specifically, in the continuation of the wicked ideology of the Pharisees, in the form of contemporary Orthodox Judaism. 

The race-obsessed Talmudists insist on imposing their ethnic, warping prism on the religion of the New Testament and calling it "Nazarene Judaism." They even claim that Christ kept kosher! Do they mean by this that He kept his meat and dairy products separate according to the crazed fulminations of the Talmudic Chazal? See if you can find anything in favor of the insane halachos of  kashrut in I Timothy 4: 1-8. These "Nazarene" Judaics must derogate or falsify the Apostle Paul in order to proceed with their counterfeit gospel. 

"The Spirit has explicitly said that during the last times there will be some who will desert the faith and choose to listen to deceitful spirits and doctrines that come from devils."

Beware.
