I agree that Ted did not intend to insult anyone. However, I think he has overstated the historical situation. We do know that Christians and Jews argued over exegesis of verses in the Hebrew Bible during late antiquity. The best case example is the interpretation of Isa 7.14 (please let's not dredge up what this verse means AGAIN!!!). Christians produced a markedly Christian understanding of the verse, while Jews produced a markedly Jewish understanding.
