The Wandering Jew: A Christmas Carol (1893) is a poem by Robert Williams Buchanan.

Abstract

The Wandering Jew of Buchanan’s apocalyptic vision is Jesus himself, who is arraigned before a mystic tribunal, accused of all the woes, and sins, and tragedies, all the delusions and disappointments of the 19th centuries of Christian history, and condemned to the desolate immortality of an everlasting outcast. The poem aroused bitter controversy.
