"His circumstances were distant, cold. The Gulag was horrendous, the persecution and the environment was just awful. But bottom line, he believed in Jesus Christ. That was the foundational thing, his trust in Jesus Christ, even through all the things he underwent, all the persecution."
"Questioner: What is the meaning of the word Hullin [animals permissible as food]?Pranaitis: I don't know.Questioner: What is the meaning of the word Erubin [Sabbath walking limits]?Pranaitis: I don't know.Questioner: What is the meaning of the word Yebamot [family relationships]?Pranaitis: I don't know.Questioner: When did Baba Batra [a tractate of the Talmud] live and what was her activity?Pranaitis: I don't know."
"In the 13th century "Popes Gregory IX and Innocent IV condemned the books of the Talmud as containing every kind of vileness and blasphemy against Christian truth, and ordered them to be burned because they spread many horrible heresies.""
"Many passages in the Talmudic books treat of the birth, life, death and teachings of Jesus Christ. He is not always referred to by the same name, however, but is diversely called "That Man," "A Certain One," "The Carpenter's Son," "The One Who Was Hanged," etc. […] Since the word Jeschua means "Savior," the name Jesus rarely occurs in Jewish books. It is almost always abbreviated to Jeschu, which is maliciously taken as if it were composed of the initial letters of the three words Immach SCHemo Vezikro—"May his name and memory be blotted out.""
"In the infamous book Toldoth Jeschu […] it is related that in the house of the Sanctuary there was a stone which the Patriarch Jacob anointed with oil. On this stone were carved the tetragrammatic letters of the Name (IHVH), and if anyone could learn them he could destroy the world. They therefore decreed that no one must learn them, and they placed two dogs upon two iron columns before the Sanctuary so that if anyone should learn them the dogs would bark at him coming out and he would forget the letters through fear. Then it is related: "Jesus came and entered, learned the letters and wrote them down on parchment. Then he cut into the flesh of his thigh and inserted them there, and having pronounced the name, the wound healed.""
"As in our languages Christians take their name from Christ, so in the language of the Talmud Christians are called Notsrim, from Jesus the Nazarene. But Christians are also called by the names used in the Talmud to designate all non-Jews: Abhodah Zarah, Akum, Obhde Elilim, Minim, Nokhrim, Edom, Amme Haarets, Goim, Apikorosim, Kuthrim."
"Father Pranaitis was one of those "liquidated" by the Cheka during the Bolshevist revolution in Russia."
"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."
"In numerous places ignominious names are given by the Jews to Christian things. It will not be out of place to list a few of these names which they give to things and persons which are held holy and dear by Christians, as follows:Jesus is ignominiously called Jeschu—which means, May his name and memory be blotted out. His proper name in Hebrew is Jeschua, which means Salvation.Mary, the mother of Jesus, is called Charia—dung, excrement (German Dreck). In Hebrew her proper name is Miriam.Christian saints, the word for which in Hebrew is Kedoschim, are called Kededchim (cinaedos)—feminine men (Fairies). Women saints are called Kedeschoth, Whores. […]The gospel books are called Aavon Gilaion, Books of Iniquity."
"In Abhodah Zarah (26b, Tosephoth) it says:"Even the best of the Goim should be killed""
"Cross-examination of Pranaitis has weakened the evidential value of his expert opinion, exposing lack of knowledge of texts and insufficient knowledge of Jewish literature. Because of his amateurish knowledge and lack of resourcefulness, Pranaitis' expert opinion is of very low value."
"We can activate people to love their country, family, and not go in search of adventure goodness knows where. This has to do with conscience. A person who loves his country, parents, environment, prefers to stay. I believe this is rather a problem of the state, which does not offer opportunities to so many young people after finishing their studies. And here there is truly a growing social injustice."
"I say to myself, and also to many believers I speak to, that our main weapons, so to speak, are humility, surrendering ourselves totally to God, solidarity, and love. Because in any case if we are here for each other, if we are close to God, if we are faithful, He will look after us."
