The burning of the Cathedral at Notre Dame in Paris has given the Jews at the Times of Israel the opportunity to remind everyone how Jews have ‘suffered’ while living in ‘antisemitic’ Christian Europe over the centuries:
Notre Dame Cathedral, which was severely damaged in a fire on Monday, is a symbol of France, of Paris, and of course of Christianity.
But the church is also tied to Jewish history. As elsewhere in Europe, Jews in France suffered repeated persecution throughout the Middle Ages.
The Jewish people were both revered as the progenitors of the Christian faith and reviled as blind schemers who betrayed Jesus and fell from God’s grace.
Notre Dame’s structure depicts these conflicting attitudes toward the Jewish population in centuries past. Following is a look at the cathedral’s sometimes unhappy connections to Judaism.
The cathedral’s most famous part is its West Facade, with its two great bell towers. Below these are three large portals, each adorned with carved figures from Christian lore. The right-side portal depicts the Jewish parents of the Virgin Mary, Anne and Joachim.
Several scenes are portrayed, including Anne and Joachim’s marriage; the rejection of the couple’s offering by the High Priest of the Temple, due to Anne’s barrenness (a bima and a Torah scroll can be seen behind him); Joachim’s visitation by an angel who tells him Anne will have a daughter; and Anne’s birth.
Jews are depicted in the carvings as wearing pointed hats, as this was royally mandated dress code for Jews in the 13th century, around the time the artwork was created — as a way to distinguish them from the Christian population.
Prominently placed above the portals is the Gallery of Kings, with its 28 sculptures of ancient Judean rulers believed to have been ancestors of Mary.
The kings on display are not actually the originals — these were torn down and beheaded during the French Revolution, as they were mistakenly seen as symbols of French royalty.
The infamous Disputation of Paris, also known as the Trial of the Talmud, took place in 1240, after the Church charged that the Jewish text included numerous blasphemies against Jesus and Christianity.
Pope Gregory IX ordered all copies of the Talmud confiscated and burned. In Paris King Louis IX held a trial for the text, in which several rabbis attempted to defend it. They were unsuccessful, and subsequently thousands of manuscripts, all handwritten, were collected and destroyed in a great bonfire at Place de Greve, a square right by Notre Dame.
As in many cathedrals, Notre Dame displays the figures of Ecclesia and Synagoga.
While Synagoga is regularly depicted as simple, downtrodden, defeated and blindfolded — to signify Judaism’s irrelevance — Ecclesia is majestic, confident, often depicted with a crown, chalice and other Christian symbols.
The burning of The Talmud at Notre Dame was just one of many times when the Catholic Church ordered it destroyed. Of course, this article makes it sound like the Christians burned the Talmud just because they “hated” Jews and their pointy hats, and not because of the disgusting blasphemies that it contains, such as Mary being a whore and Jesus is burning in hell in a pit of excrement. Whatever “explanation” that some rabbi may have for these passages is just as insulting to our intelligence.
Jews like to remind each other, and the goyim, how they’ve ‘suffered’ at the hands of the irrationally antisemitic Christians so that they can claim the moral high ground and shame the goyim in to not opposing them. Their collective desire is to see the suffering of Christ replaced by the suffering of the jewish people at the hands of Christians, a complete inversion of reality. Through a jewish lens, the burning of Notre Dame is no different from burning The Talmud, a 700 year old slight that will not be forgotten.
Let’s go and hang all them they must try real fire
How much longer must we tolerate these primitive creatures that call themselves jews? They have no ancestral connection to the people of the bible, having originated in, and driven out of, Khazaria because of their savage (mis)behaviour.
Having abandoned their own country (albeit not by choice), they infested the entire world, always falsely pleading victim status while victimising the local populations.
The “jew” really does scream (as if) in agony as it sticks the knife in your back.
Working together as they do, they ARE “the devil”, and I’m certain that it’s no coincidence that while Notre Dame burned, there was also a fire at the Al-Aqsa mosque.
Another great hoax is the endless whining by the Jews that they were “persecuted” during the Middle Ages, when the Church gave them a virtual monopoly of usury, sorcery, and international trade; when they spun financial webs about kings and noblemen and most rulers were attended by skilled Jewish physicians, always spies and potentially executioners; when the Jews exercised such political, intellectual, and economic power that, as Bernard S. Bachrach has shown in his Early Medieval Jewish Policy in Western Europe (University of Minnesota, 1977), out of the 98 rulers whose policies he examines in detail, 88 (including Charlemagne) had to pursue pro-Jewish policies, while the ten who attempted to oppose the aliens in their domains went down to failure in one way or another; when the Jews could usually count on royal or ecclesiastical protection whenever their depredations excited local resentment so strong that it became violent; when even the famous and belated expulsion of Jews from England and Spain overlooked those who thought it worth while to have themselves sprinkled with holy water; and when the Church itself was a great ladder by which marranos climbed to power and wealth.

Jews own actions make people the world over despise them, they always have. Until they change their ways, “another” shoah will surely befall them.
Luke2236 absolutely correct. Jesus and His ancestors were not Jews. They were Galilean Hebrews of the tribe of Judah. Modern day Jews and the ancient Pharisees are totally unconnected to Jesus.
Another notable “error” by the Jewish piece was,
“…ancient Judean rulers believed to have been ancestors of Mary.”
Absolute nonsense. The word “Judea” was a Roman political entity, the state they ruled over. So “Judea” never even existed before the Roman occupation. Judea was occupied by dozens of races, so if you were a black animist from Africa or a Greek pagan, you could be a Judean.
The Jews know all this. Part of their propaganda has always been to confuse all these issues.
Furthermore, the Church once did stand up for the people against the Jews and their evil practices. Sadly this is no longer the case.
I don’t want take away from your overall point and like-mindedness, but I must make 2 distinct corrections:
1) it would be the Sadducees, not the Pharisees, who would not be connected to Christ. The majority of Pharisees were indeed Israelites, as Christ supped with them and taught them. Sadducees would undoubtedly be mostly, if not wholely, comprised of Edomite/Idumean jews. Christ did not address Sadducees unless cornered, as evidenced in John 8. The same holds true for Christ’s refusal to answer Herod, the Idumean king of Judea.
2) Judea did indeed exist as a nation prior to Roman occupation, but your assessment of it as the Roman province it was at the time of Christ is correct.
Very interesting, thanks. The Jews, as always, rely on the ignorance we have toward our own religion to mislead us and rewrite history to serve them. It’s sad.
exactly
What comes immediately to mind is “the jew screams in pain as he stabs you in the back.” Are their cries of pain amid the Notre Dame destruction an admission of guilt? I sure wouldn’t rule it out.
Well, the jewish-controlled media has officially declared that the fire was “accidental”, and the talking heads are already censoring any information that contradicts that:

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”
Naturally, this tripe begins with an incorrect premise / lie – that being that Mary, Joseph and Jesus were jews. They were not, nor was judaism the ‘progenitor’ of Christianity. The antiChrist begetting Christ? Not hardly…
Whilst the burning of the building may [rightly] be seen as metaphor for the ongoing destruction of ‘the West’ , one cannot help but assume that this is another muslim atrocity, if for no other reason than the official narrative IMMEDIATELY claimed that such was not so; the fact – or so I have read – that some sheethead was being sentenced for plotting to blow up Notre Dame that very day is wholly circumstantial Im sure…
I have this sense that the burning of Notre Dame is preparing and conditioning us to accept the upcoming destruction of the Al Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount. It’s coming, just a matter of time….
