Laughable.

So Maimonides, Noahide.com (http://noahide.com/yeshu.htm), and the translators of the Soncino Talmud were wrong but “Gil Student” is right?

Thanks but no thanks. I’ll stick with Maimonides and the translators of the Soncino Talmud.

Maimonides offered no citations. There is no way to know which passage Maimonides was considering, or even if he was referring to the Talmud stories at all. Many private histories remained more or less within families, and we know of such cases in Rambam’s family.

The (incomplete and heavily edited) Soncino Talmud is for neophytes and popularizers.
