El deicidio judío es una creencia histórica, originalmente formalizada como una posición teológica en los primeros tiempos del cristianismo , que afirmaba que el pueblo judío era colectivamente responsable de la muerte de Jesús . ^[1] La acusación se hizo ya en Justino Mártir y Melito de Sardis . ^[2] Con el tiempo, la acusación antijudaica de que los judíos eran asesinos de Cristo alimentó el antisemitismo cristiano , ^[3] y el insulto proliferó incitando a las multitudes a usarlo como pretexto para la violencia contra los judíos, contribuyendo a muchos siglos de pogromos , laasesinato de judíos durante las Cruzadas , la Inquisición española y el Holocausto . ^[4]

En el catecismo que fue elaborado por el Concilio de Trento , la Iglesia Católica afirmó la creencia de que la colectividad de la humanidad pecadora fue responsable de la muerte de Jesús, no solo los judíos. ^[5] En las deliberaciones del Concilio Vaticano II (1962-1965), la Iglesia Católica Romana bajo el Papa Pablo VI repudió la creencia en la culpa colectiva judía por la crucifixión de Jesús. ^[6]Declaró que la acusación no podía hacerse "contra todos los judíos, sin distinción, entonces vivos, ni contra los judíos de hoy". Sin embargo, varios grupos cristianos rechazan la declaración del Concilio Vaticano II y continúan defendiendo puntos de vista antijudíos, incluida la teoría del deicidio .

Nuevo Testamento

La justificación de la acusación de deicidio judío se ha buscado en Mateo 27: 24-25 :

Entonces, cuando Pilato vio que no ganaba nada, sino que comenzaba un motín, tomó agua y se lavó las manos delante de la multitud, diciendo: "Soy inocente de la sangre de este hombre; ocúpense ustedes mismos". Y todo el pueblo respondió: "¡Su sangre sea sobre nosotros y sobre nuestros hijos!"

El versículo que dice: "Y todo el pueblo respondió: '¡Su sangre sea sobre nosotros y sobre nuestros hijos! ' " También se conoce como la maldición de sangre . En un ensayo sobre el antisemitismo, la erudita bíblica Amy-Jill Levine sostiene que este pasaje ha causado más sufrimiento judío a lo largo de la historia que cualquier otro pasaje del Nuevo Testamento. ^[7]

Muchos también señalan al Evangelio de Juan como evidencia de acusaciones cristianas de deicidio. Como escribe Samuel Sandmel, "John es ampliamente considerado como el más antisemita o al menos el más abiertamente antisemita de los evangelios". ^{[8] El} apoyo para esta afirmación viene en varios lugares a lo largo de Juan, como en 5: 16-18:

Entonces, debido a que Jesús estaba haciendo estas cosas en sábado, los líderes judíos comenzaron a perseguirlo. En su defensa, Jesús les dijo: "Mi padre siempre está en su trabajo hasta el día de hoy, y yo también estoy trabajando". Por eso intentaron con más ahínco matarlo; no solo estaba quebrantando el día de reposo, sino que incluso estaba llamando a Dios su propio Padre, haciéndose igual a Dios.

Algunos eruditos describen este pasaje como una referencia irrefutable e implicación de los judíos en el deicidio, aunque muchos, como el erudito Robert Kysar, también argumentan que parte de la gravedad de este cargo proviene más de aquellos que leen y entienden el texto que del texto mismo. Por ejemplo, John interpreta el carácter del Ioudaioi , el judío, como un claro antagonista y asesino de Cristo, aunque a menudo se cuestiona la noción de que el judío debe representar a todos los judíos. ^[9] Si bien el Nuevo Testamento es a menudo más sutil o nivelado en acusaciones de deicidio, muchos eruditos sostienen que estas obras no pueden considerarse aisladas y deben ser consideradas en el contexto de su interpretación por las comunidades cristianas posteriores. ^[10]

La Primera Carta de Pablo a los Tesalonicenses también contiene acusaciones de deicidio judío:

Porque ustedes, hermanos, llegaron a ser imitadores de las iglesias de Dios en Cristo Jesús que están en Judea; porque sufriste lo mismo de tus propios compatriotas que ellos de los judíos, que mataron al Señor Jesús ya los profetas, y nos expulsaron, y desagradaron a Dios y se opusieron a todos los hombres. ( 1 Tesalonicenses 2: 14-15 )

Según Jeremy Cohen:

Incluso antes de que aparecieran los evangelios, el apóstol Pablo (o, más probablemente, uno de sus discípulos) describió a los judíos como los asesinos de Cristo ... Pero aunque el Nuevo Testamento claramente ve a los judíos como responsables de la muerte de Jesús, Pablo y los judíos. los evangelistas aún no condenan a todos los judíos, por el mismo hecho de su judaísmo, como asesinos del hijo de Dios y su mesías. Sin embargo, esa condenación llegaría pronto. ^[11]

Siglo segundo

La identificación de la muerte de Jesús como el asesinato de Dios es explícita por primera vez en "Dios es asesinado" ^[12] ya en el año 167 d.C., en un tratado que lleva el título Peri Pascha que puede haber sido diseñado para reforzar la presencia de una secta cristiana menor. en Sardis , donde los judíos tenían una comunidad próspera con excelentes relaciones con los griegos, y que se atribuye a un cuartodecimano , Melito de Sardis , ^{[13] se hace} una declaración que parece haber transformado la acusación de que los judíos habían matado a su propio Mesías en el acusan a los judíos de haber matado a Dios mismo.

El que colgó la tierra en su lugar, es colgado; el que arregló los cielos, ha sido fijado; el que aseguró el universo ha sido atado a un árbol; el soberano ha sido insultado; el dios ha sido asesinado; el Rey de Israel ha sido ejecutado por una diestra israelita. (líneas 95–96)

If so, the author would be the first writer in the Lukan-Pauline tradition to raise unambiguously the accusation of deicide against Jews.^[14][15] This text blames the Jews for allowing King Herod and Caiaphas to execute Jesus, despite their calling as God's people (i.e., both were Jewish). It says "you did not know, O Israel, that this one was the firstborn of God". The author does not attribute particular blame to Pontius Pilate, but only mentions that Pilate washed his hands of guilt.^[16]

4th century

John Chrysostom made the charge of deicide the cornerstone of his theology.^[17] He was the first to use the term deicide^[18] and the first Christian preacher to apply the word deicide to the Jewish nation.^[19][20] He held that for this putative 'deicide', there was no expiation, pardon or indulgence possible.^[21] The first occurrence of the Latin word deicida occurs in a Latin sermon by Peter Chrysologus.^[22][23] In the Latin version he wrote: Iudaeos [invidia] ... fecit esse deicidas, i.e., "[Envy] made the Jews deicides".^[24]

The accuracy of the Gospel accounts' portrayal of Jewish complicity in Jesus' death has been vigorously debated in recent decades, with views ranging from a denial of responsibility to extensive culpability. According to the Jesuit scholar Daniel Harrington, the consensus of Jewish and Christian scholars is that there is some Jewish responsibility, regarding not the Jewish people, but regarding only the probable involvement of the high priests in Jerusalem at the time and their allies.^[1] Many scholars read the story of the passion as an attempt to take the blame off Pilate and place it on the Jews, one which might have been at the time politically motivated. It is thought possible that Pilate ordered the crucifixion to avoid a riot, for example.^[25] Some scholars hold that the synoptic account is compatible with traditions in the Babylonian Talmud.^[26] The writings of Moses Maimonides (a medieval Sephardic Jewish philosopher) mentioned the hanging of a certain Jesus (identified in the sources as Yashu'a) on the eve of Passover. Maimonides considered Jesus as a Jewish renegade in revolt against Judaism; religion commanded the death of Jesus and his students; and Christianity was a religion attached to his name in a later period.^[27] In a passage widely censored in pre-modern editions for fear of the way it might feed into very real anti-Semitic attitudes, Maimonides wrote of "Jesus of Nazareth, who imagined that he was the Messiah, and was put to death by the court"^[28] (that is, "by a beth din"^[29]).

Historicity of Matthew 27:24–25

Pilate Washes His Hands by James Tissot – Brooklyn Museum

According to the gospel accounts, Jewish authorities in Roman Judea charged Jesus with blasphemy and sought his execution, but lacked the authority to have Jesus put to death (John 18:31), so they brought Jesus to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of the province, who authorized Jesus' execution (John 19:16).^[30] The Jesus Seminar's Scholars Version translation note for John 18:31 adds: "it's illegal for us: The accuracy of this claim is doubtful." It is noted, for example, that Jewish authorities were responsible for the stoning of Saint Stephen in Acts 7:54 and of James the Just in Antiquities of the Jews^[31] without the consent of the governor. Josephus however, notes that the execution of James happened while the newly appointed governor Albinus "was but upon the road" to assume his office. Also Acts relates that the stoning happened in a lynching-like manner, in the course of Stephen's public criticism of Jews who refused to believe in Jesus.

It has also been suggested that the Gospel accounts may have downplayed the role of the Romans in Jesus' death during a time when Christianity was struggling to gain acceptance among the then pagan or polytheist Roman world.^[32] Matthew 27:24–25 reads:

So when Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but rather that a tumult was arising, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man; see ye [to it]. And all the people answered and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.

This passage has no counterpart in the other Gospels and some scholars see it as probably related to the destruction of Jerusalem in the year 70 A.D.^[33] Ulrich Luz describes it as "redactional fiction" invented by the author of the Gospel of Matthew.^[34] Some writers, viewing it as part of Matthew's anti-Jewish polemic, see in it the seeds of later Christian antisemitism.^[35]

In his 2011 book, Pope Benedict XVI, besides repudiating placing blame on the Jewish people, interprets the passage found in the Gospel of Matthew which has the crowd saying "Let his blood be upon us and upon our children" as not referring to the whole Jewish people.^[36][37]

Historicity of Barabbas

Some biblical scholars including Benjamin Urrutia and Hyam Maccoby go a step further by not only doubting the historicity of the blood curse statement in Matthew but also the existence of Barabbas.^[38] This theory is based on the fact that Barabbas's full name was given in early writings as Jesus Barabbas,^[39] meaning literally Jesus, son of the father. The theory is that this name originally referred to Jesus himself, and that when the crowd asked Pilate to release "Jesus, son of the father" they were referring to Jesus himself, as suggested also by Peter Cresswell.^[40][41] The theory suggests that further details around Barabbas are historical fiction based on a misunderstanding. The theory is disputed by other scholars.^[42]

Liturgy

Eastern Christianity

The Holy Friday liturgy of the Orthodox Church, as well as the Byzantine Rite Catholic churches, uses the expression "impious and transgressing people",^[43] but the strongest expressions are in the Holy Thursday liturgy, which includes the same chant, after the eleventh Gospel reading, but also speaks of "the murderers of God, the lawless nation of the Jews",^[44] and, referring to "the assembly of the Jews", prays: "But give them, Lord, their reward, because they devised vain things against Thee."^[45]

Western Christianity

A liturgy with a similar pattern but with no specific mention of the Jews is found in the Improperia of the Roman Rite of the Catholic Church. In the Anglican Church, the first Anglican Book of Common Prayer did not contain this formula, but it appears in later versions, such as the 1989 Anglican Prayer Book of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, as The Solemn Adoration of Christ Crucified or The Reproaches.^[46] Although not part of Christian dogma, many Christians, including members of the clergy, preached that the Jewish people were collectively guilty for Jesus' death.^[6]

Repudiation

In the aftermath of World War II, Jules Isaac, a French-Jewish historian and Holocaust survivor, played a seminal role in documenting the anti-Semitic traditions which existed in the Catholic Church's thinking, instruction and liturgy. The move to draw up a formal document of repudiation gained momentum after Isaac obtained a private audience with Pope John XXIII in 1960.^[47] In the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965), the Catholic Church under Pope Paul VI issued the declaration Nostra aetate ("In Our Time"), which among other things repudiated belief in the collective Jewish guilt for the crucifixion of Jesus.^[6] Nostra aetate stated that, even though some Jewish authorities and those who followed them called for Jesus' death, the blame for what happened cannot be laid at the door of all Jews living at that time, nor can the Jews in our time be held guilty. It made no explicit mention of Matthew 27:24–25, but only of John 19:6.

On November 16, 1998, the Church Council of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America adopted a resolution which was prepared by its Consultative Panel on Lutheran-Jewish Relations. The resolution urged that any Lutheran church which was presenting a Passion play should adhere to its Guidelines for Lutheran-Jewish Relations, stating that "the New Testament ... must not be used as a justification for hostility towards present-day Jews", and it also stated that "blame for the death of Jesus should not be attributed to Judaism or the Jewish people."^[48][49]

Pope Benedict XVI also repudiated the Jewish deicide charge in his 2011 book Jesus of Nazareth, in which he interpreted the translation of "ochlos" in Matthew to mean the "crowd", rather than the Jewish people.^[36][50]
