The book is divided into chapters that focus on different themes, such as the Jewish concept of the Messiah, the Jewish view of Jesus, and the Jewish interpretation of Christian scripture. Herford provides historical context for each theme and analyzes the relevant passages from the Talmud and Midrash.
