The Talmud What it is and what it knows about Jesus and his Followers

Source verified · September 2026

Bernhard Pick’s study introduces non-Jewish readers to the Talmud, explaining its development, contents, and role in Jewish religious life while also examining how it has been interpreted in Christian polemics. Historically, it is significant as an early English-language attempt to survey rabbinic literature for a general audience; readers will find an overview of Talmudic structure, selected teachings, and discussions of Jesus and the early Christians as understood in that tradition.
