Here we present Bertrand Comparet’s sermon, “The Bible Is Not A Jewish Book” as a follow up to his sermon “Who Are The Gentiles” which we presented previously.
As it is with all of these sermons we present — whether by Comparet, Sheldon Emry, or others — it is not for the purposes to endorse every word and idea they propound, but rather we hope that they will help generate a dialectic that can help us move closer to the truth.
While Comparet is very effective in demonstrating the false doctrines held by the vast majority of so-called “judeo-Christians,” many of his own doctrines, which have become mainstays of Identity Christians, also need to be scrutinized thoroughly — especially concerning his presumptions of racial identity of certain groups.
For example, Comparet seems to suggest that all those who rejected Christ were non-Israelites — and that only non-Israelite “Jews” practiced the “traditions of the elders,” the occult Jewish religion of Babylon — neither of which is true. The Israelite people had established a long history of practicing pagan religions, falling into idolatry — breaking the first commandment — it certainly wasn’t only racial Jews who indulged in these practices.
Today, the vast majority of Anglo-Saxon Israelites in Europe reject Christ and have fallen into apostasy, embracing in its stead Jewish liberalism, which is merely a secular version of the ‘traditions of the elders” — and they clearly do not hear His voice despite being His sheep. Essentially, the majority of our people do indeed practice secular Judaism without knowing it.
Here is our transcription of Comparet’s essay:
“The Bible Is Not A Jewish Book”
The statement is commonly made — even those who should know better — that we Christians owe a debt to the Jews, for we got our Bible and our religion from them. While many people have been deceived into believing this, it is completely false. Part of the mistake comes from the complete confusion in the minds of nearly all people as to just what they mean by “Jew”.
Are they referring to people of a certain race — or to people of a certain religion? — for the two are not the same.
There are in Africa today some pure-blooded Negroes who are Jews by religion — and there are in China today, some pure-blooded Mongolians who are Jews by religion. Likewise, there are some people today who are of the racial of the stock of the Jews, but who have been converted to other religions — such as David Ben Gurion, for years the Premier of the Jewish nation in Palestine, who is by religion a Buddhist.
First let’s consider the claim we got our Bible and our religion from the Jews — as meaning Jews by religion. Now it’s certain we did not get the New Testament from them — for it condemns the Jewish religion throughout all the New Testament.
But did we get the Old Testament from them? No — for several reasons. In the first place, no Jew by religion existed before the return from the Babylonian captivity — shortly after 536 B.C.
The great Roman historian Josephus — speaking of the time when they started to rebuild Jerusalem after their return from Babylon — says this:
So the Jews prepared the work. That is the name they are called by from the day that they came up from Babylon.
The only books of the Old Testament that were written after the return from Babylon are — parts of Kings and Chronicles, Ezra and Nehemiah — all of these four are historical rather than doctrinal — and Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi.
In none of these do the Jews receive anything but rebuke for their wickedness — for their apostasy from the religion of the Old Testament.
The late Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, formerly the Chief Rabbi of the United States, said this:
The return from Babylon — and the introduction of the Babylonian Talmud — mark the end of Hebrewism and the beginning of Judaism.
The learned rabbi was correct in distinguishing the true religion of the Old Testament as “Hebrewism” — for it was the religion of the real Hebrews who were not Jews at all. [Moses was a Hebrew, not a Jew.]
Judaism — the religion of the Jews — is — as the learned rabbi says — based upon the Babylonian Talmud, which contains the supposed “oral law,” which was never reduced to writing as part of the Bible — and which gradually gained greater force among the Jews than the written law in the Bible, with which it often conflicted.
In Jesus’s day, the Babylonian Talmud was known as “The Tradition of the Elders.” This is why Jesus Christ told the Jews in Mark 7, verses 6 to 13:
Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. Howbeit, in vain do they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandments of God…. that ye may keep your own tradition…making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which ye have delivered.
Again, in Matthew 22, verse 29, he tells them,
Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
And in Matthew 23, verse 23, he said to them,
Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites! For ye pay tithes of mint, and anise and cumin and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy and faith.
This was the religion of the Jews. As the learned Rabbi Stephen S. Wise said, it was Judaism — as distinguished from Hebrewism, which was the real religion of the Old Testament.
Certainly Christianity took nothing from any Jewish religion for we have never taken any part of Christianity from the Talmud.
Naturally, the Jews didn’t give us any part of the New Testament either — for it completely repudiates and condemns the Jewish religion of the Talmud [which is based on the oral tradition].
Well, then, can it be said we got our Bible or our religion of Christianity from men of the Jewish race? No, it cannot.
It can be clearly proved — both out of the historic books of the Bible and out of the only thorough history of the times written by one living when the facts were still well known, which is Josephus’ Antiquities of the Jews — that the Jews were a people distinct and separate from God’s people Israel, although living among them.
The Jews were the Canaanite people who lived in Palestine, before Israel entered the Promised Land and who were not driven out, but were allowed to remain in the land while paying heavy tribute taxes — and the half-breed inter-mixture from some inter-marriage between the Canaanites and the Israelites. Also a portion of the Jews were the Canaanite mixture — the Edomites.
The prophets who wrote the books of the Old Testament —on the other hand — were all of pure Israelite stock, from one or another of the 12 tribes of Israel. For example — Moses, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Habakkuk, Haggai and Zechariah were of the tribe of Levi. Joshua and Samuel were of the tribe of Ephraim. Isaiah, Daniel and Zephaniah were of the house of David out of the tribe of Judah. Jonah was of the tribe of Zebulun. And Hosea was of the tribe of Issachar.
When the Assyrians conquered and deported the people of the ten northern tribes — who had kept the name Israel — the Bible records that the Assyrians brought other people in from the Assyrian Empire to settle them in Samaria — in place of the Israelites they had deported. But Samaria is only the southern half of the territory occupied by these ten northern tribes. The northern half of their territory was Galilee — and this was left vacant.
When the kingdom of Judah was later deported to Babylon for their seventy years captivity, their land was left with very little population. And while they were gone, the Edomites — who were descendants of Esau mixed with Canaanite people — were forced out of their own land by pressure of invading Arab tribes — and they moved westward into the vacant lands of Judah, occupying the southern half of the former kingdom of Judah.
Therefore, when a portion of the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin returned from the Babylonian captivity, they were too few in numbers to drive out the warlike Edomites and had to try to squeeze into the very little territory they had left. It was too small for them, so what was left of the tribe of Judah took the little territory remaining around Jerusalem — and the tribe of Benjamin was pushed to the north. They couldn’t move just next door into Samaria because that was occupied by the people the Assyrians had settled there. So Benjamin had to leapfrog over them into the vacant territory of Galilee.
That the apostles and the majority of Christian converts came from the Benjaminites of Galilee should not surprise us. For when the kingdom was split in two upon the death of Solomon, God said that He would leave Benjamin with Judah so that the house of David should have a light before them. And in Christ’s time, the people of Benjamin were still the light bearers.
In the New Testament all of the apostles were of the tribe of Benjamin except Judas Escariot — the only Jew among them who came from the village of Kerioth in southern Judea. Iscariot is a corruption of the Hebrew “Ish Kerioth” — man of Kerioth.
Paul tells us that he — Paul — was of the tribe of Benjamin — and all of the other apostles except Judas Escariot were from Galilee where the tribe of Benjamin had settled after the return from Babylon.
This is confirmed by Jesus Christ himself — in Matthew 15, verse 24, He said,
I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
In the tenth chapter of the gospel of John Jesus tells the Jews,
I am the good shepherd and I know My sheep and am known by Mine. But ye believe not because ye are not of My sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear My voice and I know them and they follow Me.
From the Savior’s own lips we have the proof that the Jews are not of any of the tribes of Israel. Note carefully that He does not say that their unbelief keeps them from being of His sheep. He says the exact opposite — that the reason why they do not believe is that they are not of His sheep — not of the house of Israel.
Christianity and Judaism are completely and irreconcilably inconsistent. Whichever one is right, the other must be wrong — for they are mutually repudiating each other.
A great part of Jesus Christ’s reported words are his denunciation of the Jews for their religion, which He tells them is not that of the Old Testament. In John 5, verse 46, Jesus told them
Had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed Me: for he wrote of Me.
And in Luke 16, verse 31, Jesus said,
If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rose from the dead.
He was right — He did rise from the dead, but to this day they are not persuaded. It is clear, therefore, that we did not get either our Bible or our Christian religion — either in whole or in part — from those who were Jews, either by religion or by race.

Strange theology here, as Christ clearly said salvation is from the Jews (ioudaios). see John 4.22. I pray that you might come to know the grace of Jesus Christ, the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

I just have one Question. Did you even bother to read the actual article, or just the title? Be honest.
Your comment does NOTHING to challenge the actual article; only the title.

ReformingBoomer
So gents, I got word on the Boomer circuit that Hillsdale College is promoting its online course “The Genesis Story”.
Has anyone experienced this course to know how (((woke))) it is and, if so, what are some good normie-safe assertions that I could make to call their woke narrative into question?
The course promotion says that it will explore Jacob & Esau, and I have doubt that it will explore the Edomites, or even explain the the account of the two brothers as well as a rebuttal post in this very thread has.
CHRIST IS KING
The one that springs to my mind is you could ask them if it is scientifically possible that Noah and his wife could produce white, black, and yellow sons when they were pure in their generations. Now we can debate the words pure and generations, but for my mind unless you have a mixed heritage and have a “nigger in the woodpile” throwback baby, it is just impossible. So that usually leads to a what race was Noah and co type of query… then you can bust out Adam means Ruddy etc.
Or, another good one is why do all the other races, if they all came from Adam and Eve, not have the same origin story? Alright, passages of time change things and storys evolve etc, but, still, why do the polynesians, who have a good oral history to this very day, not have a version of what could be seen as Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden? Or the asians? Or the blacks?
That is how I approach things, anyway.
But! As we read in the good book, and as I have most certainly found out for myself, even some of the cleverest people just cannot hear the Word. Their ears may be blocked by God. They might be topflight jetfighter pilots, or big time surgeons, or whatever, it still won’t make a difference if they aren’t His sheep, or if their ears are blocked if they are of the flock: let he who hath ears to hear, hear. And, not all of the people who say Lord, Lord…

It all depends what you (CFT TEAM) call a Jew. Please, read here what Benjamin Freedman has to say about the “Jews.”

Benjamin Freedman was a racial Jew who converted to Christianity. Even though he converted to Christianity, it didn’t change the fact that he was a racial Jew. Obviously, Freedman did some good work by exposing the Zionist plans for world domination, but that doesn’t change the definition of a Jew.
Was Sammy Davis, Jr. a Jew? Of course, not. He was a Black guy who converted to Judaism. And Elizabeth Taylor didn’t magically become a Jew even though she too converted to Judaism.
Since the vast majority of racial Jews do not practice Judaism or attend synagogue, we must conclude that the primary definition of Jew is racial or ethnic, not religious.
And so even though Benjamin Freedman no longer practiced Judaism, he never the less continued to be a racial Jew.

Aryanhistory……
It is great that you have come to CFT. But I have a feeling you haven’t spent much time here “studying”.
Why don’t you cite some examples, and then let us all debate those examples. Many of your examples have “plausible explanations”. Or “explanations” as it relates to the context in which it happened.
So, let’s talk about them.
How about Phinehas? Heard of him? You should be proud of him.
I hope you come back Aryanhistory and learn about the One who created you. We will all be praying for you.
Chesterton
Yes, Aryanhistory, God brought you to CFT for a reason. Now you have no excuse–from now on, you can never claim, at the moment of Judgment, that you were ignorant of the truth. And if that doesn’t send a chill through you, nothing of value will.
Chris
Oh great another “Aryan” without much substance. I think you’re a little confused and lost your way. Kike Hunt is over at “Renegade”. Provide the meat to these claims so we can pick them apart.
Swain
Like many White racialists, you have fallen into the trap of believing that your own people are incapable of those most venal of sins and corruption, and that is patently absurd. The whole point of the Old Testament is that God divorced Israel because of their sin. Unfortunately, you see your own race through rose-colored glasses. If the venality of Greece and Roman does not convince you of what depravity Whites are capable of, nothing will.
And you’ve also fallen into another trap that is common among White racialists who believe that Jews are the cause of all their problems. Jews couldn’t get away with any of their evil doings if it were not for the complicity of evil White traitors among us–along with most of us turning our backs on God, who promised us that if we turned away from Him, he would use alien races like the Jews to punish us.
aryanhistory
False. I never claimed that Whites were not capable of bad behavior. The difference is that in our myth-telling, the scumbags are not held out as the HEROES of that story like they are in the old testament. In White culture, horrible behaviors are not portrayed as ADMIRABLE traits, and ones that get rewarded, as they are in the old testament.
By your reply here I charge that you have never read it beginning to end. If you had you would not have written what you did that the scumbag (very Jewish-like) behavior in it is condemned by the god in the story or punished. It isn’t. It’s admired. The sneaky, conniving, very Jewish behavior like Jacob tricking his own blind father or taking advantage of his brother in a time of insensible need, both for predatory material gain. Both very Jew-like, both rewarded in the story, both done by the “hero”.
The very Jewish-like Joseph who worms his way into the royal court using necromancy, then using b*****t claims of dream interpretation to get the king to give him permission for very Jew-like behavior of speculation and cornering the market, hoarding grain and then when the people are starving, rather than selling it modestly to the benefit and health of the nation, uses that leverage to totally impoverish the people of both their money and the ownership of their very land, turning them into tenant farmers. Then inviting his racial brethren to flood in to “live off the fat of the land” like typical Jewish locusts. And then the very Jewish-like King David who abuses his power to essentially (and in a very Jewish sneaky way) to murder one of his own soldiers in order to steal his wife.
And that very character’s origin story, where the Aryan Philistines issue what was a known Aryan cultural tradition of honor, letting a contest of two armies be settled instead by the combat of a single champion from each side in order to avoid the greater injury and bloodshed of a clash of armies. Yet instead of fighting honorably hand-to-hand as was the custom, the cowardly, very Jewish-like David strikes from afar with a sling. Never mind the story likely never actually happened; the point is how it exalts the very Jewish value of cheating and being sneaky as a admirable way to outsmart the goyim.
Or how the very Jew-like character of Moses (who exhibits the very Jew-like trait of hating monarchies), has his tribe steal everyone’s gold before making a run for it. Or the typical Jew-like sneaky, dishonorable behavior of coming to a peace agreement with an opposing army that they agree to be circumcised (as a sign of submission, BTW), and then the morning after they have done so, attacking them, knowing that they are hampered by their fresh circumcisions in order to defeat them. I could go on and on with this. Read the damn thing!
John 3
You sound like you’ve been listening to Charles Giuliani, an ignorant Christ-hating narcissist. I doubt you’ve read the Bible yourself–but are just repeating a few anecdotes that are the favorite strawman examples for the likes of Giuliani and Kyle Hunt. You won’t persuade anyone here. Your “noble” aryan is a myth.
Johan
Did you get that from a YouTube video? I always wonder at people who aren’t very familiar with the Scripture — clearly, yet they challenge Christians on a Scriptural basis.
Jacob increased Laban’s flock greatly and served Laban with meekness in spite of Laban tricking him once. When Jacob wanted to leave, Laban asked him to stay for a price. Jacob stated his price, but Laban wanted to cheat him out of the price, tricking him again, so Jacob caught him in his own cheating.
You’ve completely misrepresented the story of Joseph. The Scripture says specifically that the whole ordeal was used for the good of all the inhabitants of the lands, that they could survive the famine. God saved them all through Jacob, after which Pharaoh invited Jacob’s family to live in Egypt. Later in the law, Israel is commanded to be kind to Egypt because Israel had lived in Egypt and benefitted from them.
Nathan the prophet accuses David and outs him, showing that his act was evil. No one, not even God, questions that David’s act against Uriah was evil. That’s the point.
It sounds like you made up that tidbit about one on one combat customs. Anyway, if you could stand against a near ten foot tall monstrosity, clad in bronze armor, including helmet, and down him with a single pebble, while he’s running towards you, bypassing the helmet somehow (which generally protected the forehead), then we can talk about cowardice. Under normal circumstances, a sling would not have made any difference. Slings aren’t guns. On a purely logical level, you’ve made a ridiculous argument.
As for Moses, maybe the Egyptians shouldn’t have murdered all the Israelite males as they were born? Did you know about that part of the story? The Egyptians reacted the way they did when Israel left, because the Egyptian first born males had been supernaturally killed as well. In the context, that would have been a big deal for Egyptians and would well have seen the divine vengeance against them. Though you seem to ignore the supernatural aspects of the narratives, as if they aren’t key aspects of understanding them.
Jacob cursed Simeon and Levi for killing those men. The Scripture states quite clearly that what Simeon and Levi did to that town was very wrong.
Either you’ve misrepresented the stories intentionally, in which case that is very “Jew-like” behavior, or you just haven’t read the stories for yourself. Yet here you are accusing other commenters they haven’t read the Scriptures.
Swain
Of course the “aryan” thing to do when you’re soundly proven wrong is to admit it, instead of digging your heels in like a Jew and doubling down. So let’s see if “aryanhistory” can live up to his name, and instead of acting like the Jews he pretends to hate, he can show some intellectual maturity and grow up, and admit he has a lot to learn.
Chris
Well said. Also addressing “Jacob tricking his own blind father”.
Hebrews 12:16-17
“Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. 17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.”
Esau sold his inheritance to Jacob and disdained his birthright by marrying Canaanite women. The people who sacrificed babies to Moloch. Funny how we live in a world today were baby killing is acceptable.
Mr Aryanhistory might also want to look into Isaiah 43:1-4 and ask himself why our lands are turning darker.
John
I think it would be in your best interest to humbly approach the Bible as a child. Remove the gunk you’ve built up in your life. Ask Christ to cleanse your palette so that you can feed on the honey (that is the word) in its purest form.
You will see that these things you believe are not true.
Chesterton
Well said, John. The truth will forever elude those who lack humility. The arrogant are destined to embrace lies with conviction and blind certitude that will cast them into utter darkness which they will mistake as light.

aryanhistory
You are the exact representation of the wrath and warnings Jesus gave to the Sadducees and Pharisees. To interpret the scriptures from YOUR OWN thinking instead of humbling yourself and asking in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit what the scripture mean for we are not to interpret on OUR OWN AUTHORITY. Jesus said we will KNOW HIM by Truth & Spirit. The Holy Spirit is our Teacher of the scriptures (Truth) and the only way to the Father. Jesus is the Door. If we are to interpret the scriptures on the basis as you have and make a doctrine of that FALSE interpretation, you are not only in error but you will never be able to be in communion with The Father The Son The Holy Spirit. Period.
2 Chronicles 7:12-16
[12 Then the Lord appeared to Solomon at night and said to him, “I have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for Myself as a house of sacrifice. 13 If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send a plague among My people, 14 and My people [c]who are called by My name humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 15 Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the [d]prayer offered in this place. 16 For now I have chosen and consecrated this house so that My name may be there forever, and My eyes and My heart will be there [e]always.]
The ‘place’ and ‘house’ is OUR HEARTS where The Holy One wants to dwell in ALL OF US. Consider Proverbs 14 in which the whole chapter exhorts us to be ‘wise’ and be filled with knowledge. This verse is not separate from the others but it came to me to give to you:
12 There is a way which seems right to a person,
But its end is the way of death
We either submit to God’s Will or stay in our own will. Jesus came and died for The Father’s Will to show us the way and walk in it. All of Psalms & Proverbs instructs and reminds us everyday what to do.
1 The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel:
2 To know wisdom and instruction,
To discern the sayings of understanding,
3 To receive instruction in wise behavior,
Righteousness, justice, and integrity;
4 To give prudence to the naive,
To the youth knowledge and discretion,
5 A wise person will hear and increase in learning,
And a person of understanding will acquire wise counsel,
6 To understand a proverb and a saying,
The words of the wise and their riddles.
7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge;
Fools despise wisdom and instruction.
