contra celsum makes it very clear that celsus was being fed anti-christian lies by the jews. > one of celsus's main sources for books iii of the true word was an earlier anti-christian polemic written by an unknown jewish author,[13][7] whom origen refers to as the "jew of celsus".[7] this jewish source also provides well-researched criticism of christianity[13] and, although celsus was also hostile to judaism,[13] he occasionally relies on this jewish author's arguments. you think celsus came up with the panthera myth? even though jews were saying it for over a century before celsus did?
