Some Incidents of Antisemitism

Jews under the Visigoths in Spain

Many of the rulers believed that religious unity was important and Catholics were intermittently persecuted. Eventually the rulers became Christian and Latin became the official language. Emperor Herclius commanded Jew to accept Christianity within a year or leave. Jews had became numerous, Hadrian had transplanted 50,000 Jewish families to the peninsula. Some 90,000 converted and the remainder were severely persecuted.
