Quotes:Sepher Toldoth Jeshu

Zirkoff, Boris

Sepher Toldoth Jeshu (History of Jesus). Jewish apocryphal work which first became known to Christians in the 13th century, and whose author is unknown. It is made up of fragmentary Talmudic legends, and is known in two widely differing recensions. A Latin translation of one of them was published by Wagenseil in his Tela ignea Satanae (Altdorfi Noricorum, 1681, 4to.), and of the other by J. J. Huldrich, as Historia Jeschuae Nazareni, a Judaeis Blaspheme Corrupta, Leyden, 1705. Acc. to the first, Jesus was born in the reign of Alexander Jannaeus, 106-79 b.c.; and acc. to the second, in the reign of Herod the Great, 70-4 b.c.
