Norman C. Tobias introduces us to Jules Isaac, a French historian who was the author of popular school textbooks in the interwar period. His reputation meant that when he published the book "Jesus and Israel" in 1948, which revealed the anti-Jewish discourse of Christian teaching, his voice was heard. Isaac was all the more credible because his family suffered a tragedy - his wife, son, daughter and son-in-law were arrested and sent to extermination camps. Only the older son survived, and Jules survived by hiding with friends. As a survivor, he had the right to speak about Jewish suffering.
