Did John Chrysostom Actually Say, "No Jew Adores God"?
Person: John Chrysostom · Homily 1 · late 4th c.
What the ancient record says
Yes, the traditional English is direct. After attacking the synagogue, he anticipates the objection that the Yahudim also worship Alahym and responds (translated): "God forbid that I say that.
No Jew adores God!" He then attempts to justify it through his interpretation of Yahusha's words concerning knowing the Father. A modern historian saying "Chrysostom thought Jewish worship was invalid" is interpretation; Chrysostom saying "No Jew adores God" is primary evidence, why the actual homilies matter.
Immediately afterward he argues Alahym is not worshipped there and characterizes the synagogue as a dwelling of demons. Does not prove Yahuah actually rejected every Yahudi, this is a history card proving what Chrysostom said; his theological claim must not be turned into the voice of Yahuah merely because he became influential.
Matters because later institutional traditions inherited him as an authoritative teacher.
