Abstract

This article analyzes how, in a letter published in 1841, historian Isaak Markus Jost attempted to alter the Talmud's attitude towards non-Jews so radically that neither Jews nor gentiles would have anything more to say, and the complex response of Rabbi Zvi Hirsch Kalischer to this attempt.
