That’s the only point I was making. And it’s not so much “talmudic judaism” but “judaism” generally, as today talmudic is the only kind that exists. It is probably more accurate and useful if we used a different word to describe the system as it was prior to Christ, and “judaism” afterward, given how much of their effort became dedicated to rejecting His wisdom.
But I'm talking about history that's pretty well documented.
Well, in broad strokes maybe, but it really feels like the specifics of that era have been shrouded and obscured by so many tellings and re-tellings as to be quite questionable, as evidenced by the massive confusion on the subject these days (mUh jUdEo-ChRiStIaN vALuEs)
