Abstract
This study presents an analysis of a saying from the Talmudic literature, Sanhedrin X, 1 which is associated with R. Aqiba and discusses the definition of sefarim hitsonim. The common conception of this body of texts claims that it is apocryphal literature. After an analysis of the different texts and a historical and critical analysis of this passage, I suggest that R. Aqiba's saying is related to the Jewish-Christian literature. If this suggestion is accepted, then we are witnessing a harsh reaction to the Jewish-Christians and their literature, especially a complete negation of their right to the world to come.
Translated title of the contribution | Is it an apocryphal literature by the experts of Talmud? An analytical essay of the Talmudic essay « superficial books » (Sefarim Hitsonim) |
