Christians study the old law, The Old Testament, and how the old law contrasts, predicts, and is synergistic with the new law, The New Testament. Christians study both books and many have for decades...not just one year..Does the Jew study the New Testament or do they declare it heresy? If the New Testament is heresy then the Jew should really consider how false Islam is since it was written 800 years post New Testament. Revelation 22:18-20...Jews and Christians share a common belief at least and should have knowledge of each other's basic faith. Ann did not try to proselytize, she just stated a Christian belief with respect to what Jesus taught and is verified in the New Testament. Her statements should not in any way be offensive to Jews when two are discussing doctrine unless someone is looking for a reason to be offended and wears their chip on the shoulder, as did Danny Deutch.

No, we don’t study the New Testament, but I’ve never heard my Rabbi or anyone else denigrate it in any manner, either.
What she said *is* offensive because she is saying that Jews are inferior to Christians — which is NOT something that Jews say about Christians.
