An illusion of symmetry. On the Polish translation of the Jewish anti-gospel “Toledot Yeshu”The article was inspired by the introduction to the Polish translation of Toledot Yeshu (by Jan Iluk). The translator suggests that Toledot Yeshu might have been the cause of the Christian anti-Judaism. This is an unjustified opinion, and this paper provides a review of the current state of research on the Christian-Jewish relations in the ancient times and the causes of the negative opinions on Jews being taught in Christian tradition. The author suggests that Toledot Yeshu should be read as a chronicle of the Jewish perspective of the mutual relations between Jews and Christians. Złudzenie symetrii. Na marginesie polskiego tłumaczenia żydowskiej antyewangelii „Toledot Jeszu”Punktem wyjścia artykułu są uwagi zawarte we wstępie do polskiego tłumaczenia tekstów żydowskiej antyewangelii Toledot Jeszu przez Jana Iluka (Żydowska politeja i Kościół w Imperium Rzymskim u schyłku antyku, t. 2: Żydowska Antyewangelia. Antyczna tradycja i nowożytne trwanie). Tłumacz i zarazem autor opracowania sugeruje, że teksty Toledot Jeszu mogły stać się przyczyną chrześcijańskiego antyjudaizmu. Krytykując to założenie, autorka artykułu referuje aktualny stan badań na temat relacji chrześcijańsko-żydowskich w starożytności oraz przyczyn chrześcijańskiego negatywnego nauczania na temat Żydów. Następnie proponuje lekturę Toledot Jeszu jako zapisu żydowskiej perspektywy wzajemnych stosunków Żydów i chrześcijan.

This article tries to find the answers to the following questions: Can one find, in the Rabbinic writings (the Tosefta, Jerusalem Talmud and Babylonian Talmud), some texts that refer to Jesus and His followers? What is their nature? Do they include anti-Christian undertones and constitute a specific Rabbinic anti-gospel: the rabbis’ well-thought and thorough reaction to the content included in the Gospels? The author in his answers used the detailed research presented in his latest monograph entitled Jesus and His Followers in the Talmud. A Textological, Historical and Sociological Analysis, Lublin 2013. His investigation leads him to the conclusion that in Talmudic narratives Rabbis created a specific anti-gospel which was initially transmitted verbally and then written down in various contexts of their works. The aim of this anti-gospel is to challenge the authority of Jesus of Nazareth as the Son of God and the Messiah from the house of David. Rabbinic narratives wish to show in a clear way that Jesus must not usurp any messianic and divine prerogatives. In the earlier times rabbis warned Jewish community against magic power and the attractiveness of the doctrine advocated by heretics. Subsequent rabbis showed the weakness and stupidity of heretical teaching, whose contradictions and lack of logic were easy to disprove by making use of proper argumentation. Jewish sages wished to prove the superiority of the Rabbinic doctrine and the biblical presentation they offered, over the Christian faith.
