What a “Real Christian” Said About Jews
Jefferson On Judaism: The Untold Story
Although the beloved author of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson, was a firm advocate for religious liberty in America for Jews and all people, what has been carefully censored from the history books is the absolute fact that Jefferson clearly considered the Jewish religion itself to be quite abominable.
Writing to John Adams on Oct. 13, 1813, the widely read intellectual commented on the Talmud and other Jewish teachings:
“What a wretched depravity of sentiment and manners must have prevailed before such corrupt maxims could have obtained credit! It is impossible to collect from these writings a consistent series of moral doctrine.”
Describing himself as “a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus,” Jefferson wrote toWilliam Short (on Oct. 31, 1819) that he considered Jesus“the greatest of all the reformers of the depraved religion of his own country,” adding in a subsequent letter to Short (Aug. 4, 1820) that while Christ preached “philanthropy and universal charity and benevolence,” the Jews followed teachings that instilled in them “the most anti-social spirit towards other nations.”
Jefferson wrote that Jesus—as a “reformer of the superstitions of a nation,” was in an “ever dangerous” position by opposing “the priests of the superstition”—the Pharisees—whom he described as
“a blood thirsty race . . . cruel and remorseless as the Being whom they represented as the family God of Abraham, of Isaac and of Jacob, and the local God of Israel.”
