James Dunn has argued that the New Testament contributed toward subsequent antisemitism in the Christian community.[4] According to Louis Feldman, the term "antisemitism" is an "absurdity which the Jews took over from the Germans." He thinks the proper term is Anti-Judaism.[5] The distinction between anti-Judaism and antisemitism is often made, or challenged,[6] with regard to early Christian hostility to Jews: some, notably Gavin I. Langmuir,[7] prefer anti-Judaism, which implies a theological enmity. They say that the concept of antisemitism "makes little sense" in the nascent days of the Christian religion and that it would not emerge until later.[8] In this context, the term antisemitism implies the secular biological race theories of modern times.[9] Peter Schäfer prefers the word Judaeophobia for pagan hostility to Jews, but considers the word antisemitism, even if anachronistic, synonymous with this term, while adding that Christian anti-Judaism eventually was crucial to what later became antisemitism.[10]
