Of Dickens' Anti-Semitism there is no doubt, but why does the article label it as a Victorian attitude? Sadly, Anti-Semitic attitudes have been common throughout Europe from the medieval period to the present day, and the Victorians were hardly the most brutal of the Anti-Semites, so why target them? 98.220.235.82 ( talk)
As it was the custom at the Feast of the Passover to give some prisoner his liberty, Pilate endeavoured to persuade the people to ask for the release of Jesus. But they said (being very ignorant and passionate, and being told to do so, by the priests), "No, no, we will not have Him released. Release Barabbas, and let this man be crucified!"
Our Saviour performed His miracles, certain people who were called Pharisees. They were very proud, and believed that no people were good but themselves ; and they were all afraid of Jesus Christ, because He taught the people better. So were the Jews, in general.
