Justin

Justin
(d. 165)
   An early Father of the Christian Church. Justin was the author of the first anti-Jewish polemic in Greek. His ‘Dialogue with Tryphon’ may possibly be based on a debate with Rabbi Tarfon in Palestine. Justin identified the central issue between Christians and Jews as whether or not the Messiah had come. Loss of national sovereignty was divine retribution for the Jewish rejection of Jesus. The Christians were the true Israel; the Church had to reject its Jewish past and appeal to the pagan world. The ‘Dialogue with Tryphon’ provided Christians with a handbook of theological arguments against the Jews that were to thunder from pulpits throughout the Middle Ages.
