Were
the earliest settlers of New Mexico really Jewish exiles forced to become
Catholics by the Spanish Inquisition?
Do their modern-day descendants really continue to pass down Jewish rituals in secret after 400 years? In 1492, the Spanish Inquisition forced
more than 200,000 Jews to chose between expulsion or forced conversion
to Catholicism. Many became crypto-Jews, insincere converts, appearing
to be devout Catholics but secretly maintaining Jewish rituals in their
homes and passing down their true faith to their children. Today's hidden
Jews of New Mexico have carried this legacy for centuries. |
