Rerun: Rabbi Nathan Lopes Cardozo: The Return of Sephardic Jews
Friday, August 30, 2024
In December 1496, Portugal's King ordered the expulsion of all Jews, aiming to eradicate Judaism from the country. This edict soon turned into forced conversions in 1497, with Jews prevented from leaving, baptized against their will, and persecuted as "conversos" under the Inquisition.On today's "Proclaiming Justice" podcast, Rabbi Nathan Lopes Cardozo, a Dutch-born Jewish philosopher, discusses the history of Sephardic Jews from Spain and Portugal, who faced these harrowing choices during the Inquisition.
