That Jesus Christ Was Born a Jew

Free elsewhere

The early Luther on the Jewish people: sharply critical of how Christians had treated them, and hopeful of conversion through kindness. Catalogued deliberately alongside the 1543 treatise, because the distance between the two is part of the historical record.

Read this with context

Read alongside On the Jews and Their Lies (1543). The change between them is not a matter of tone but of substance, and neither text should be used to explain away the other.
