          basis. The author identifies every misquotation and
          mistranslation from the Hebrew Bible and rebuts every
          antisemitic assertion in the Christian Scriptures. The book
          examines the historical background in which the Gospels and
          Epistles were written and how contemporary conditions affected
          their contents. The final chapter deals with the impact of the
          New Testament on Jews and Christians for the past two millennia
          and the possibilities of revising this trend through alternate
          interpretations.]

          beginnings to the present, tracing it from its pagan roots to
          the Christian charge of deicide and beyond, to the massacres of
          the Crusades and the Inquisition, which heralded later blood
          libels and fantasies of Jewish conspiracies for world
          domination. Focuses on the dramatic reemergence of antisemitism
          in the wake of the collapse of Communism and the new national
          hysteria which has set the ground burning under the feet of a
          still substantial Jewish minority. Provides a
          country-by-country survey, showing the modern guise of
          antisemitism as it appears today throughout the world.]
