Anti-Semitism Rising: Are Jews in League with Satan?

Send us Fan MailIn this episode we discuss Jörg Frey's book "Qumran, Early Judaism, and New Testament Interpretation." In it he perpetuates a diabolical form of interpreting the New Testament by using Anti-Jewish tropes instead of a careful examination of the texts, as he proclaims the following: "Dualistic concepts are rather used to qualify the enemies of the communities, the Roman power as well as the synagogue (Rev 2:9; 3:9), the Jews, and also deviant or “heretic” Christians. Thus 1 and 2 John explicitly draw on the concept of an “antichrist,” and label the deviant teachers as “antichrist(s)” (2 John 7; cf. 1 John 2:18; 4:3) pp.322-324. Claiming that all of this is part of "Jewish apocalypticism” he thinks he can get away with pilling other Jews among the enemies of the new Israel (church/followers of Jesus) without taking into consideration that Jewish-Christians at that time were being persecuted by either other Jews who were aligned with Rome, religious leaders who found their teachings objectionable or Roman authorities who saw them as a threat to world peace. Mr. Frey calls "the synagogue" or "the Jews" the enemies of Christianity showing his inherent bias and Judeophobia which as we show on our program he attempts to attribute to Jesus (Jewish) Movement.Support the showMystic-Skeptic Radio produces programs such as Uncensored & Raiders of the Unknown.
