In the late 1930s, a team of German theologians, inspired by National Socialist philosophy, undertook a major project: to remove all traces of Judaic thinking from the Christian Bible. Their efforts to entjuden (de-Jewify) Christianity came to fruition in 1940 with a new work, which they called Die Botschaft Gottes ("The Message of God"), presented here as The Aryan Bible.
Led by Walter Grundmann, this team was convinced that Jesus himself was not a Jew, as it claims in the traditional Bible, but rather a gentile, an Aryan. Born in gentile Galilee, Jesus might have been raised in a Jewish milieu, but racially and ethnically, he was an Aryan, and his worldview and teachings reflect this—once the overlaid Jewish corruption is removed.
To create their new Bible, the German scholars undertook a meticulous process:
In the end, Grundmann and his team produced a remarkable book: an all-new interpretation of Christianity intended for Aryan peoples, while remaining true to the authentic parts of the traditional scripture.
Never before published in English, The Aryan Bible will be of interest to scholars and laymen, Christians and atheists alike. It may yet pave the way for a radical new interpretation of this 2,000-year-old religion.
