Overview

For nearly two millennia, Rabbinic Judaism has presented a sustained case against Jesus of Nazareth and the faith that arose in His name. Christianity, it is claimed, misunderstands Scripture, violates monotheism, corrupts the Torah, invents authority, and abandons Israel's God. Catholicism, in particular, is portrayed as a theological deviation built upon error, misreading, and later innovation. This book refuses to accept that framing. Catholic Response Against Rabbinic Judaism is a rigorous, unapologetic examination of the strongest Jewish objections to Catholic Christianity - and a systematic dismantling of them. Each objection is presented fully, accurately, and without caricature: the Messiah did not fulfill prophecy, the New Testament is unreliable, Christian interpretation is retroactive, the Messiah cannot suffer, die, or be divine, the Temple was not rebuilt, the Torah was altered, and Catholic worship constitutes idolatry. The Catholic response does not rely on sentiment, coercion, or appeal to ecclesial authority alone. It proceeds from Scripture, history, and internal logic. Each objection is answered on its own terms. Then the inquiry turns outward. Once the rabbinic case against Catholicism fails, the book moves from defense to offense. Rabbinic Judaism itself is examined under the same standards it applies to Christianity. The result is unavoidable: a post-Temple religious system forced to adapt without divinely authorized sacrifice, priesthood, atonement, or fulfilled prophecy - surviving exile by redefinition rather than resolution. This is not a work of dialogue. It is a work of evaluation. Written for readers seeking clarity rather than compromise, Catholic Response Against Rabbinic Judaism argues that Catholicism does not merely survive Jewish critique - it exposes the structural impossibility of Rabbinic Judaism's claim to be the final and faithful continuation of the religion revealed in the Torah and the Prophets. This volume inaugurates the Defending Catholicism series, a multi-book project that places Catholicism and its challengers under equal scrutiny - and follows the argument wherever it leads.
