Is Accepting Christian Evidence Special Pleading?

From a Jewish website
https://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/eve...nd-aggadah


Quote:According to another tradition, the serpent did indeed engage in intercourse with Eve, who became pregnant and gave birth to Cain (see below, “Now the Man Knew His Wife Eve”).
The Bible states that 'Cain was of (descended from) the wicked one', and furthermore Cain is not included in the Genealogy of Adam.

Ok, interesting.

Unimportant nitpicking: There's no reason to place the word interpretation in quotation marks, since that's exactly what the Talmud is and does. And it's not the traditional position; it's a tradition, according to your own quote. 

Funny that you should place so much stock in the conclusions of a body of Rabbinic writings that clearly rejects the Christian interpretation of and beliefs about Messiah.
