Actions against the Talmud are based not on supersession but on continued
affirmation of certain aspects of Judaism. In dealing with the Law,
however, canonists & theologians were given to distinguishing between
ceremonial precepts or caeremonialia (some of which had come to an end
once their typological purpose had been fulfilled) and moral precepts
(which had not) and iudicialia. There is more to the terminology than
this, but the only thing I can lay my hands on just now is J. Y. B. Hood,
Aquinas and the Jews (1995).
