I recall that Jesus was called a bastard ... and that such is the position of Orthodox Judaism to this day.That’s silly and abusive to mistreat and label children for a mistake their parents did . I thoughtGod’s word forbid abusing the fatherless. Dear Abby said it best about 50 years ago. There are no illegitimate children just irregular parental relationships.
I also recall that Jesus said this ...
Matthew 18
1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
2 Jesus invited a little child to stand among them. 3 “Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me.
6 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
7 Woe to the world for the causes of sin. These stumbling blocks must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!
