What is Jewish Christian Texts in Arabic Manuscript about?

This document summarizes an Arabic manuscript written by the 10th century Muslim theologian Abd al-Jabbar. The manuscript contains extracts from a Jewish Christian community that Abd al-Jabbar adapted for his own anti-Christian polemic. The extracts criticize mainstream Christian beliefs and practices, arguing they diverged from the teachings of Jesus. The extracts describe Jesus following Jewish law and customs, unlike contemporary Christian sects who were accused of adopting pagan Roman/Greek traditions.
