Summary/Abstract: This article is devoted to Tadeusz Zieliński’s “Hellenism and Judaism” published in 1927. In this two-volume book Zieliński decribes antique Judaism as has been seen in the eyes of Greeks. The conclusion of this decription turns to be negative in the case of Judaism and developed Zieliński’s idea about psychological continuity between ancient religions, particularly religion of ancient Greece, and Christianity. The thesis and this work was met with very negative reaction from the Jewish and Christian circle. The article presents the polemics written from Jewish point of view and published by the inspiration and support of “B’nei B’rith”. The analysis was made in reference to the works of Mateusz Mieses and Edmund Stein.
