Here I reproduce the Greek Orthodox monk – and former rabbi – Neophyte’s testimony on the subject of jewish ritual murder for posterity as well as an additional back-up that has been translated and published by JR at JRBooksonline (https://jrbooksonline.com/).
Original annotation: Sadistic Murder: Revelations of Greek Monk Neophytos, Former Judaic Rabbi. Second edition. Translation by V.A. Komarov. Saint Petersburg, 1913.
Monk Neophytos, who lived in the second half of the 18th century and the early 19th century, was a rabbi until the age of thirty-eight, after which he converted to Christianity and retired to a Greek monastery. In 1803, he published a book in the Moldovan [Romanian] language, entitled Refutation of the Religion of the Judeans and Their Rites by the Holy Scripture of the Old and New Testaments. The following fragment is part of that book. Blessed be Father, Son and Holy Spirit, our One God, who wants that every man be saved and reach the cognition of the truth. Our Lord Jesus Christ took pity upon my unworthiness and raised me from darkness to sunlight, so, for the purpose of offering a sacrifice of gratitude to the Divine Savior, I have written this book, small in size, but hopefully quite useful for Christians. It contains many Jewish secrets, which have not been fully disclosed by anyone since the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and up to this day.

How the Jews Have Been Able to Conceal Their Use of Christian Blood
The secret use of blood collected by the Jews from murdered Christians is, according to them, a rite prescribed by God himself and mentioned in the Scripture by way of mysterious expressions. Many scholars have written books for the purpose of proving, with the Bible, the coming of the true Messiah, promised by God to our fathers, who is the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Blessed Virgin Mary. A countless number of books have also been written in order to refute the superstitious beliefs and false teachings of the Jews. Their authors included many native-born Jews who had converted to the Christian faith. However, no one has yet made public anything important on this barbaric blood secret, which is being preserved and put into
practice by the synagogue. If a book hinting at this secret happens to fall into the hands of Christians, and they use it as a reference, the Jews only respond to it with feigned mockery or subterfuges, such as this: “How could we kill Christians if our Law forbids us to drink blood?”
In my opinion, the cause preventing the Jews, even those who converted to Christianity, from making explicit disclosures on this subject is either that they had not actually been initiated into this secret or that, out of irrational compassion for our [Jewish] unfortunate nation, they fear they could bring the terrible revenge of Christian nations upon the Jews.
However, since I have already received the Holy Baptism and the monastic initiation by God’s mercy, I will not be afraid, in the interests of Christians, of openly telling everything I know about these rites, which I had zealously performed myself and kept most strictly secret all the time I had been a hakham, or rabbi.
But first of all, it must be explained that the blood secret is not known to all Jews, but only to hakhams, or rabbis, and to scribes, or Pharisees, who are therefore called keepers of the blood secret, a secret which, moreover, is not clearly mentioned in any of their books and which they transmit by word of mouth exclusively.
Fathers initiated into this secret transmit it only to the son whose secrecy they had tested, and as they do so, they emphasize his obligation to transmit this secret under the same conditions and in the same manner, and never to disclose it to a Christian, not even in the harshest situations, not even to save his [Jewish] life. This act of revelation is accompanied by the most terrible damnations upon those who would disclose the secret. Here is how I was initiated into it:
As I reached the age of thirteen– an age when the Jews have the custom to lay a so-called “power wreath” on the head of their sons– my father and I remained alone, and he spoke to me at length, inculcating in me, as a duty imposed by God, hate towards Christians, which must go as far as murdering them. After that he told me about the custom to collect the blood of murdered [Christians] and added, while embracing me: “So, my son, in this way I have made you my confidant and, as it were, my second self.” As he then placed the wreath on my head, he explained to me, in great detail, this blood secret, the most sacred secret and the most important rite of the Judaic religion.
“My son,” continued he, “I adjure you with all the elements of heaven and earth to keep this secret always deep in your heart, and to trust it neither to your brothers or your sister or your mother or, later, to your wife; to no mortal man, and especially to no woman. If God gives you as much as ten grown-up sons, do not open this secret to all of them, but only to one you will find to be the smartest and most capable to keep the secret, just like I am doing with you now. You must carefully watch that this son of yours is zealous and committed to our faith. I command you once again: do not entrust yourself to women, not even to your daughters, wife or mother, but only to the son you will find trustworthy.”
“Oh my son,” he finally exclaimed, “May the whole earth refuse to accept your body and belch it out of its depths if you ever, no matter under what circumstances, even out of the most extreme necessity, reveal this blood secret to anyone except the one I have mentioned, even if you become a Christian for the sake of a benefit or for other reasons. So take care not to betray your father by giving away this divine secret which I have revealed to you today. Otherwise, may my curse befall you in the very hour you commit this sin, and may it follow you all your life until your death, and for all eternity.”
My Father, whom I have acquired in heaven and who is the Lord Jesus Christ, will avert these damnations from the head of the one who is writing this exclusively for the benefit of the Church and the triumph of the Truth.

Reasons Why the Jews Use Christian Blood
There are three reasons for this barbaric custom: 1) hatred towards Christians, 2) superstition, and 3) belief in the spiritual validity of Christian blood. I will explain each one of these.
Reason No. 1: Hatred towards Christians.
The Jews instill hatred towards Christianity in their sons with their mothers’ milk, from the earliest childhood. Having received the same beliefs from their fathers for entire generations, they are sincerely convinced that the repugnance to Christians, including their murder, is a deed quite pleasing to God. Thus, they make true the words of the divine expiation: “Anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God.” (John 16:2)
Reason No. 2: Superstition.
The second reason is based on superstitious beliefs held by the Jews, which pertain to magic, witchcraft, the Kabbalah and other secret rites. The Jews believe that Christian blood is required for these diabolical activities. Of all these superstitions, I will mention only one, which refers to a God’s curse that befell the poor Israeli nation and was prophesied by Moses himself as follows: “The Lord will afflict you with the boils [“leprosy” in the Russian translation of the Bible] of Egypt… The Lord will afflict your knees and legs with painful boils that cannot be cured.” (Deuteronomy 28:27, 35) This horrible disease [leprosy] has always been widespread among the Jews, much more than one may think. So when a hakham visits those who suffer from it and gives them medications, he at the same time sprinkles them with Christian blood, if he has it at his disposal, which is the only cure.
Reason No. 3, the main one: Jewish belief in the spiritual validity of Christian blood.
The main reason which makes the Jews kill Christians and collect their blood is the belief secretly kept by hakhams, or rabbis, namely that Jesus Christ, the Son of Mary of Nazareth, sentenced by our [Jewish] ancestors to death on the Cross, is, most probably, the true Messiah, so long expected and called upon by the patriarchs and prophets. They have enough prophecies to be convinced of that; the following passage from Jeremiah is of particular importance: “ ‘Be appalled at this, you heavens, and shudder with great horror,’ declares the Lord. ‘My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.’ ” (Jeremiah 2:12–13) This prophecy is well-known to and understood in its true meaning by many rabbis, just as it was well-known to Annas and Caiaphas. But, just like these two, the rabbis, out of their arrogance and hard-heartedness, refuse to accept it, so, by having resorted to pathetic interpretations, they made up new rules, a true parody of the fundamental sacraments of the Church, in order to be saved by Christian blood, in which they see the blood of the Messiah Himself.

How the Jews Use Christian Blood
Due to the belief I have just mentioned, the Jews use Christian blood as follows: during a circumcision, which represents the sacrament of Baptism; during a marriage, which corresponds to the same Christian sacrament; in unleavened bread [during Passover], which represents the Eucharist; on deceased persons, imitating the sacrament of Anointing; and during lamentations over the destruction of Jerusalem, which represents the sacrament of Penance. These are the uses of Christian blood, as I once knew them. I performed these rites myself with great zeal. Let me dwell upon each of them.
Marriage. The bridegroom and the bride prepare themselves for the Jewish marriage by observing a strict 24-hour fast, abstaining themselves even from water until the sunset. Then, a rabbi comes. He takes a freshly baked egg, peels it and divides it into two halves. Then, he sprinkles the halves with special ashes, which I will describe below, and gives one half to the bridegroom and one to the bride.
Now, let us speak about these ashes. They are used not instead of salt, but rather instead of fresh Christian blood, being actually modified Christian blood. Namely, this is blood that remains after sacrifices are offered during the feast of unleavened bread (the more, the better). Rabbis soak linen or cotton rags in this blood, and then dry and burn them. Ashes are kept in thoroughly sealed bottles, entrusted to the synagogue’s treasurer. The treasurer gradually distributes the ashes among rabbis who ask for them either for their own use or for sending them to countries where it is impossible to obtain Christian blood– either because no Christians live there or because the local police are vigilant and Christians are cautious about it.
At any rate, fresh blood is always to be preferred, but it is only needed for unleavened bread, so when insurmountable obstacles appear, the said dreary ashes are used [for rites of this kind] instead.
Circumcision. When a Jewish child is circumcised on the eighth day of his life, a rabbi arrives. He pours a bit of wine into a bowl and then adds either one drop of blood of a tortured Christian or, if he does not have such blood, a small amount of the above-mentioned ashes. He then adds one drop of blood of the circumcised child into the same bowl. Having shaken the mixture well, the rabbi puts his little finger into the bowl and then into the child’s mouth, and says: “I said to you: [You will] live [in your blood]!” He then repeats this rite and these words.
Here is the superstitious explanation of this ceremony as given by rabbis. The prophet Ezekiel says twice: “And as you lay there in your blood I said to you: [You will] live [in your blood]!” (Ezekiel 16:6) The prophet perhaps meant here the blood of Christ: as Christ released the souls of those who had not been baptized from the pit of hell, this child, who had not been baptized either, can also be saved by the blood of the tortured Christian who had been baptized. And one of the reasons why the victim must be cruelly tortured while his blood is being collected is exactly the need to reproduce the sufferings of Jesus Christ. However, if the prophet Ezekiel meant the blood from circumcision, the Jewish child will be saved by his own blood, which was mixed by the rabbi in the wine together with the Christian blood. What a pathetic nation!
Commemoration of the destruction of Jerusalem. The Jews also use the abovementioned ashes on the ninth day of July, when they lament over the destruction of Jerusalem by Titus. On this occasion, they use these ashes in two ways: firstly, they sit on the ground and rub their temples with them (it would be improper to do it with fresh blood), and secondly, they sprinkle a hard-boiled egg with them, and every son of Israel must eat it. They call this egg “saida amafsancas”.
Death. When a Jew dies, a hakham immediately goes to his house. He takes the white of an egg, adds a bit of Christian blood and a bit of ashes, and puts this mixture on the chest of the corpse, while allegedly quoting from Ezekiel: “I will sprinkle clean blood on you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses.” (Ezekiel 36:25) However, Ezekiel says “clean water” rather than “clean blood”. By distorting his words, the Jews try to convince themselves that the deceased person will be certainly admitted into heaven.
Feasts of Passover and Purim. These two feasts require the same bloody rite. During Passover, the Jews must eat small pieces of unleavened bread. This bread is prepared by hakhams alone, who add Christian blood to it. All the Jews, rich and poor, old and young, even those who have no teeth yet, must eat from this bread, at least an olive’s bulk. This rite is called “eficoimon”.
The feast of Purim was established in memory of the Jewish liberation from Haman’s rule with the help of Esther and Mordecai, as related in the book of Esther. This feast takes place in February. It is when the initiated Jews kidnap as many Christians as possible, especially children, everywhere they can. But in the night before Purim they only murder one Christian, reproducing the sufferings of Haman. And it is for this reason that all those present hurl countless insults at the hanging corpse, as if they were actually talking to Haman. The collected blood is poured by the rabbi into dough mixed with honey, from which he then makes small triangular cakes so as to mock the sacrament of the Holy Trinity. These cakes are not to be eaten by the Jews. Out of immense perfidy, they are distributed among rich Jews, who must give them as a gift to their Christian friends, allegedly as a sign of great courtesy. This rite is called Purim bread. It must be noted that this rite does not require the infliction of very painful sufferings on the victim, because the collected blood has no other use than that I have just described.
As to the other kidnapped Christians, they are kept in secret places until Passover, which follows shortly after Purim. On the eve of Passover, they are all murdered in a most cruel and barbaric manner, and their blood is collected, partly for unleavened bread, and partly for other needs which I have described above. These sufferings have a specific purpose, which is to reproduce the sufferings of Christ, and for this reason the Jews prefer to perform them on children, who, due to their innocence and chastity, symbolize Christ better than adults.
All these depressing bloodsheds make true the words of Jeremiah, who prophesied about the Jews as follows: “On your skirts is found the lifeblood of the guiltless poor” (Jeremiah 2:34), and, even to a greater extent, those of Ezekiel: “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: …You eat meat with the blood still in it… and shed blood.” (Ezekiel 33:25) As a result of these countless murders, Israel was banished from many countries, Spain among others, thus making true another prophecy of Ezekiel: “Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.” (Ezekiel 35:6)’
