Abstract:
Describes the harsh anti-Judaism expressed by Bishop Melito of Sardis in his sermons and writings, especially in his polemical homily "Peri Pascha". Three-quarters of its 105 sections deal with the status of Israel or the charge against Jews of deicide. Melito is notable as the first Christian writer to make an unambiguous accusation of deicide.
