ABOUT THE BOOK:- The Talmud unmasked is actually a fake, containing false quotes from the Talmud, intended among others to believe that Jews would not consider non Jews as human beings and that it contained blasphemous passages to Jesus Christ and insulting to Christians. This is a book similar to Protocols of the Elders of Zion and it is a few years earlier. This text is one of the most emblematic of antisemetism. There is no source available that mentions that the author knew the Aramic, or the Talmud is written entirely in Aramic except quotes verses. In the Introduction to the book it is written that the original text of the Talmud unmasked, was published into Hebrew and Latin, which could readily demonstrate that the author never had access to the Talmud itself, but antisemitic pamphlet probably written earlier by the German Orientalist.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Rev. I. B. Pranaitis (1861-1917) was a Lithuanian Catholic priest, Russian Master of Theology and Professor of the Hebrew Language at the Imperial Ecclesiastical Academy of the Roman Catholic Church in Saint Petersburg, Russia. He published The Talmud Unmasked as an anti-Semitic tract called Christianus in Talmud Ludaeorum in Latin in 1892 under the imprimatur of the Archbishop Metropolitan of Mogilev. In 1912, Pranaitis was called to testify as an expert witness in Jewish hatred of Christians in the famous case of Menahem Mendel Beilis. During the course of that trial his credibility rapidly evaporated, however, when the defence demonstrated his ignorance of some simple Talmudic concepts and definitions.
