"Justinas Pranaitis was a Roman Catholic priest, Hebraist, and author of antisemitic tracts. […] In 1892, he published The Christian in the Talmud of the Jews, or The Secrets of the Rabbinical Teachings Concerning Christians, a work based on his dissertation. By means of numerous citations in Hebrew and in Latin translations, he sought to demonstrate that the Talmud obliged Jews to injure Christians in multifarious ways and to work for their elimination. Pranaitis drew on the works of the German anti-Talmudists Jakob Ecker and August Rohling. The book received the imprimatur of the church and was published by the press of the Academy of Sciences. […] Pranaitis's work was translated into Lithuanian, Polish, Russian, Italian, Spanish, and English (as The Talmud Unmasked). Today, it is still being distributed by extreme right-wing and clerical circles and can be accessed from a number of antisemitic websites."
