Forword The following complete Soncino English translation of the Babylonian Talmud is widely regarded as the de-facto standard. Given its huge size, very few people will find the time to read it in full. The reason why we put it online is to make it easier for both critics and defendants of Judaism to verify whether the shocking quotes published on the Internet are truthful citations of the Babylonian Talmud and confirm whether the Talmud is indeed - as some of its critics claim - the mother of all hate literature. Here a couple of examples: "The Jew is to say on Purim Day: ... cursed be all non-Jews, blessed be all Jews." (Orach Chaim, 660, 16).
"Theft, robbery and rape of a beautiful woman and similar deeds are forbidden to every Gentile toward another Gentile and also toward a Jew. But they are allowed to a Jew against a non-Jew." (Sanhedrin, 57 a; also Abodah Zara, 13b).
"A heretic Gentile you may kill outright with your own hands." (Aboda Zara 4b).
