It is shown that this treatise drew on a lost work of Henana of Adiabene on the same subject. One section, at least, of Mushe bar Kepha’s work probably follows Henana fairly closely: this is printed with a translation. It shows a concern with the Jewish-Christian argument, and also displays the disagreement with Theodore of Mopsuestia known to be characteristic of Henana - although not the allegorical exegesis with which Henana is sometimes (wrongly) associated.
