At a Glance
(3/5) ***
(5/5) *****
The Babylonian Talmud is huge and occupies thirty volumes in the Soncino translation. The Mishnah is the earliest material and constitutes about 20% of the whole Babylonian Talmud. Amazingly, this great mass of material was passed on in oral form for generations of rabbis. The Mishnah was codified by Rabbi Judah before his death in 217 CE, but this may not have involved writing the material down on paper.
Only the tiniest portion of the Talmud may refer to Christianity in any definite way. The three most noteworthy references are given in links above: the hanging of Yeshu on the eve of Passover, the bastard son found in a book of genealogies, and the account of a certain Yeshu of around 100 BCE. Only the first of these can be related to Christianity with reliabilty.
Here is what is written in Baraitha Bab. Sanhedrin 43a, probably second century:
On the eve of Passover Yeshu was hanged. For forty days before the execution took place, a herald went forth and cried, "He is going forth to be stoned because he has practiced sorcery and enticed Israel to apostasy. Any one who can say anything in his favour, let him come forward and plead on his behalf." But since nothing was brought forward in his favour he was hanged on the eve of the Passover! - Ulla retorted: Do you suppose that he was one for whom a defence could be made? Was he not a _Mesith_ [enticer], concerning him Scripture says, _Neither shalt though spare, neither shalt thou conceal him?_ With Yeshu however it was different, for he was connected with the government for royalty [i.e., influential]. Our Rabbis taught: Yeshu had five disciples, Matthai, Nakai, Nezer, Buni, and Todah.
Robert Stein writes (Jesus the Messiah, pp. 33-34):
Several passages dealing with the treatment of heresy have also been suggested as possible allusions to Jesus even though his name is not present.
b. Berakot: "May our company not be like that of Elisha, from which issued Gehazi. _In our bread places_: may we produce no son or pupil who disgraces himself in public." One manuscript (M) adds to the end of this saying, "like the Nazarene."

Hezkia Eliezer Arochas, of blessed memory, better known as Kiki, was born in Cairo, Egypt on December 20, 1924, the second of six boys. His father, Eliezer Hezkia Arochas was from Izmir, Turkey; and his mother, Esther Cohen, was a sabra from Yerushalayim.
From his youth, Kiki displayed a strong talent and love for hazanut, a constant which remained with him during his long and productive life in America. He put his singing talent to task early on in his life. At the tender age of six, he led his entire school every morning in Shaharit prayers. He was also the head of the choir in the great Ashkenazic shul of Cairo. He enjoyed all types of music in many languages, and his repertoire spanned from operatic arias to Arabic ballads.
However, hazanut held a very special place in his heart. He enjoyed praying more than any other type of singing and he was appreciated. The congregation would sit in awe at the beauty and clarity of his prayers. He composed a unique liturgy, intermingling Ladino and Arabic tunes. Grown men, touched by his Tehillim recitals, were moved to tears while listening to his voice.
Along with the beautiful voice was a beautiful heart. Whether it was a wedding, Bar Mitzvah, funeral or even an immigration problem, Kiki was always there to help. At one time or another, everyone in his congregation was affected by his kindness, and indeed his love for his fellow human beings is sorely missed.
Hezkia Eliezer ben Esther left this world on the 29th of Shevat, Feb 22nd, 2001. He is dearly remembered by his loving wife of 53 years, Rosette, his three daughters, Mireille, Esther and Sophie, all his grand and great-grandchildren, and myself, his son Eliezer.
We wish to thank Rabbi Ely Allen and Mr. Raphael Benaroya for their dedication and extreme effort to make this endeavor possible. May Hashem grant them all their wishes and bless them.
May these recordings keep his holy memory alive and may his beautiful voice always be among us.
Elie 'Loulou' Arochas
There are many people who deserve thanks for their involvement in this project. Mr. Raphael Benaroya, Brad Orloff and his staff at United Retail, Dan Aron at No Soap and Phil Bulla of A1 Platinum Productions for his outstanding work on the audio mastering. Mr. Albert Allen, Elie 'Loulou' Arochas, Michael Allen, Alfred Efremoff, Cantor Moshe Tessone and Rebecca Allen for their tireless editing and consultation. May Hashem bless them for their effort and dedication.
It is always difficult to create compilations of this nature. Kiki, of blessed memory, left few direct recordings. Although much time was spent trying to determine the best of what was available, some of the tracks are cut off or of inferior quality due to the condition of the original copies. It is our belief that the Kiki's ability rises above these inadequacies, and we hope that you enjoy the recording despite them.

OPORTO, Portugal, December 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
The Jewish Community of Oporto is already evaluating the applications of people claiming to be descendants of Portuguese Sephardic Jews and for this reason wish to obtain Portuguese nationality.
According to the Regulation of the Nationality Law, which will be approved in the coming weeks, the applicant for Portuguese Nationality must first obtain a Certificate from the Portuguese Jewish Community which attests to his/her ties to a Sephardic Jewish Community of Portuguese origin. A request for this Certificate must be addressed to the Jewish Community of Oporto or to the Jewish Community of Lisbon.
From 15th December 2014, the Jewish Community of Oporto is ready to receive requests from descendants of Portuguese Sephardic Jews who wish to obtain a certificate issued by the Portuguese Jewish Community attesting this status. The requests should be addressed by digital means to the following email address: portuguesenationality@comunidade-israelita-porto.org, together with the all of the supporting documentary evidence as may required for a proper evaluation of the matter and decision. Evidence of the applicant's family history of connection to a Sephardic Community of Portuguese origin may be direct and circumstantial. For more information please visit the official website of the Jewish Community of Oporto.
On July 3, 2013, the Portuguese Parliament approved the bill, amending the Nationality Law that allows descendants of Portuguese Sephardic Jews to apply for Portuguese nationality. The bill was introduced by Maria de Belem Roseira (President of the Socialist Party) and was approved unanimously in the Portuguese Parliament.
Now the Regulation of the Nationality Law is finished. It may take days or weeks to get published but the candidates certification needs to start now, for the majority of cases will take a long time.
