Inhaltsangabe:

Alexander McCaul reproduces on page after page of this volume, passages from the Babylonian Talmud and other sacred rabbinic texts in their original Hebrew and Aramaic, and then translates them into English, so there can be no question of misquoting, or taking out of context. The Talmud Tested is the most convincing and comprehensive Christian textbook on Judaism since Eisenmenger. McCaul was the Victorian Eisenmenger. This is a timeless work, as valuable as a key instructional text for Christian missionaries in the twenty-first century, as it was in the nineteenth. Since it is addressed to Judaic believers in the rabbinic traditions, it serves a dual purpose: to unconverted Judaic people in merciful solicitude for their salvation, and to Christian apologists and evangelists (and scholars and researchers in general), who seek authentic and reliable knowledge of the inner doctrines of the religion of Orthodox Judaism. This edition of The Talmud Tested from Independent History and Research (originally published in 1846 as The Old Paths), represents the clearest and most readable McCaul facsimile on the market, and is supplemented by a new introduction by Michael Hoffman, a leading scholar of Judaism, wherein readers are introduced to McCaul and his world, and the history of his London Society for the Conversion of the Jews, as well as the extent to which Judaic persons were considered the natural object of missionary zeal when Christianity was still worthy of the name.
