As we approach the anniversary of October 7, there will no doubt be a somber mood throughout Israel. But it will also be a day of high anxiety. Considering jihadists enjoy sowing their reign of terror on symbolic dates, Israel’s military and intelligence services will have no time to reflect. They will need to be at the highest level of alertness in order to prevent any attacks which would cause even more pain to the Jewish people.
Gabriel Senderowicz, president of the Jewish Community of Porto (also known as Oporto) in Portugal recently said: “To know the 1506 massacre in Lisbon is to know the 7 October 2023 massacre in Israel and the historic genocides of Jews all over Europe. The only change has been in the weapons.” Considering not many people are aware of the 1506 genocide, I thought it would be prudent to examine it, particularly given the comparisons drawn by Senderowicz to the terrible atrocities inflicted on the Jewish people on October 7.
In the streets of Lisbon (Portugal) between April 19 and April 21 in the year 1506, up to 4,000 Jews were brutally murdered. Alarmingly, it was also the weekend set aside to remember the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Some years prior to the massacre, King Manuel I signed a decree on December 5, 1496 which expelled the Jews from Portugal. Under the edict, Jews were required to flee by October of the following year. After resistance from the Council of the State the king ordered that those who converted to Catholicism could remain in the country, provided they were baptised by Easter of 1497. This act was not done out of kindness. The king was made to realise that he needed the Jews considering they were productive, well-educated and vital to the economy.
Those who succumbed to forced conversion became known as “the New Christians”. The reluctant converts sought assurances from the king that he would not order any inquiry into their religious practices for a period of 20 years. Surprisingly, the king agreed and on May 30, 1497, the prohibition of inquiries into the beliefs of new converts was published. In other words, he unofficially consented to Judaism, giving rise to a new term: crypto-Jews (hidden Jews). […]
