Does antisemitism grow out of early Christianity or is if of later origin?
In “Divergence: Examining Jewish-Christian Relations in the Early Church” R.
L.
Solberg writes: “Those who believe that racism in the early Church led to a corruption of Christian theology typically point to the Council of Nicaea as “ground zero.” It is here, they claim, the anti-Semitic sentiments that grew among early Christian leaders solidified into an anti-Jewish doctrine agreed on by the whole Church.
Nicaea, it is alleged, is where Christianity officially left the Torah behind.
It is where Passover was exchanged for Easter, and the Saturday Sabbath was replaced with Sunday worship.” But is that true?
