27-year-old Jarryd Hayne has since deleted incendiary tweets repeating millennia-old anti-Semitic claim.

“When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar’s friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.

When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.”   John 19: 6-15

JTA – Jarryd Hayne is an Australian rugby star trying to make an unusual transition to the NFL as a potential member of the San Francisco 49ers.

He also seems to be trying to stir up a millennia-old anti-Semitic debate.

“Jesus wanted to help people but was killed by his own people,” Hayne tweeted on July 1. A day later he added: “The Jews were the people who took him [Jesus] to the Romans n [sic] forced them to give the order because they couldn’t.”

Hayne deleted the tweets on Friday.

“It’s a pity that Mr. Hayne is so ill-informed that he doesn’t know that in 1965 the Vatican rejected this charge,” Dvir Abramovich, chairman of Australia’s B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission, told the Australian Jewish News.

Hayne, 27, has been one of the best rugby players in his country for years. He is currently trying to earn a spot on the San Francisco 49ers, likely as a kick returner.

In 1965, the Vatican issued the Nostra Aetate, which officially stated that the Jews were not responsible for the death of Jesus.

  1. That the jews killed Jesus Christ was one of the very first things I learned as a child.

  2. Then the bible is lie and jews are peace loving people kicked out 109 times and 110 would be USA.
    I hope to be straight in these strange times.

  3. It’s just a “claim” Jarryd. Just like that “claim” that the earth revolves around the sun. But some day, Jarrry, SOME day, we’ll get to the bottom of this “claim.” How’s that crucified feeling working for you, by the way? Got any idea who’s making you feel that way? Oh, sorry. My bad.

  4. Hmmm
    Then it stands to reason that the biblical references supporting Jewish “claims” to lands belong to the Palestinians who have lived their for the last 1000 years or so is also false. Or is this yet another example of Jewish selective revisionism.

  5. 100% correct Jarryd, and the Jews shouted “His blood on us and our children”.

  6. Crucified by Jewry for stating that the Jews had Christ crucified. Are you starting to get the picture, Jaryyd?

  7. Haha! So the Vatican said the Jews didn’t do it. That’s like the chickens saying “No the Fox guarding the hen house door isn’t stealing us at night. We are undergoing natural attrition”
