JVom tn Timuton A thenmim, ' i
On a dark December day, three hundred and
fear years ago, a body of men assembled in
.the long gallery of Whitehall todisoais tb.
darkest toplo on whloh the wit of Roundhead
trooper and Puritan divine had ever bee a
employed. Cromwtll sat la the chair of state.
Below him were the Lord Chief Baron, the
Lord Chief Jastloe Glynn, Lord Mayor Draper,
(Sheriff Thompson, and a host of preaohors
Dr. Owen, Dr. Goodwin, Mr. Cradook, and
others, then known to City madams and
Whitehall beauties as the most popular
preachers of their time. Well-worn Bibles
lay before them on the board of green cloth;
old monkish chronicles, old Aots of Parlia
ment, old Court records, were also heaped
about. The tomes had been searched for erl
denoe; the best lawyers bad been employed to
state the case, and the Talmudlsts had been
consulted as to facts. The purpose of the
meeting was todeduoe from the prophetioal
Boriptnres, from the ancient Jewish writings,
ana from tneasiuai statutes oi mis realm,
the duty of English statesmen, livinz In a
righteous commonwealth, towards the people
" of God.
'v The subjeot had been brought before Crom
' well In a striking way. ' A learned Outoh Jew,
called Manasseh ben Israel had oome orer
from Amsterdam to lay the cause of his people
before the Counall; and the Lord Protestor,
even in the stress of his great schemes, took
op the tale, and summoned his big men of the
law and dirinity to debate the matter in his
. own presence.
In those days no Jew could openly lire and
trade in England. Now and then a Jew oame
OTer Into the land; came over as a courtly
physician, a prlnoely traveller, or a wealthy
goldsmith; but in order to evade the law, and
deoeive the mob, be had to put on a foreign
air, and pass as either an Arab, an Italian,
or a Portuguese. Spain herself had not whipped
the holy raoe with sharper thongs than the
Island whloh onoe had been their happiest
home. '
' No one knows when the Jews first came into
: England. They were here before the Norman
Conquest. They were here 'when Hengist
; landed. It is probable that they were here
before Ccesar oame. Borne writers derive the
name of Britain from a Hebrew word: from
Barat-anaoh, tin island, which would be very
' , Ingenious if either Iiarat meant tin, or anach
island. When the Romans land, we get on
' aafer ground. One of the edicts of Augustus
speaks of the Jews in Britain. One of the
' Roman bricks dug np in Mark Lane has the
story of Samson and the Foxes stamped npon
It. Bede mentions the Jews in connection with
the great controversy on the tonsure. Eogbert
forbade the Saxon Christians to attend Jewish
feasts; a fact which Implies not only that we
' had synagogues and ceremonials in England,
but that a friendly intercourse then existed
between the native Christians and the native
. Jews. In the Crowland Abbey records there
Is an entry whioh proves if the record itself
be genuine that Jews could hold land, and
that they were in the habit of endowing monks
and. nuns with some part of their wealth.
- The first storm of persecution struok them
when the Pagan Danes deflowered the island.
Canute was not their friend. Some say he
drove them from the country; and this Is a
legend which the Jews accept as true. It is
hardly likely that all were sent a way; but
those who stayed behind were treated In a new
and cruel spirit. The Jews were no longer free.
' They lost their right to hold land. They oould
no longer appeal to the courts of law. We hear
no more of Christians going into the syna
gogues, of Hebrews leaving money to the
convents. All the springs of charity were sealed.
". Only under the name ef "King's men," and
' very nearly in the position of slaves, were a
' few wealthy and useful families permitted to
hold their ground. "The Jew, and all that he I
j' has, belong to the king," runs the law of
Edward the Confessor a law which was cer
tainly not a dead Jetter in the succeeding
times.
The Jews made very slight progress in Eng
land nntll the Norman baron, with his strong
, arm and greedy maw, Invited the rioh traders
t and tiremen of that raoe from Franoe. Crowds
of Jews now settled in Stamford and in York;
afterwards they came to Oxford and London,
. and during the first golden period of their re
turn they oooupied and enriched these oities
by art and trade. In London they dwelt in
two several places, both of which localities
were determined by the fact of Jews being
' considered as "the King's men" not as ordi
nary oitizens free of the ordinary law. One
' of their quarters lay in the City proper, the
quarter off Cheapside, in whioh stood the
anolent London . Palaoe. This quarter was
, called from them the Jewry. They clustered
about the old palaoe, because they were "the
King's men," and found their only pro
" teotion under the palace walls. The
second quarter, which lay beyond the
city towards the east, was also a royal
' quarter, being close to the King's Tower,
' a part of London over which the Mayor and
Aldermen had only a limited right of sway.
When the prinoe was weak the Jews fled into
the Tower, whioh was sometimes crowded with
Jews so cloBely that pestilence broke out, and
scattered both the fugitives and their protec
tors to the four winds. When the prince was
strong, his "men" multiplied in number
swarming backward from the Tower diteh into
t the dlstriot now known as the Minories, and
the swamp called Hounds' Ditch. The great
merchants of the saored race dwelt in the City,
the poor hucksters and chapmen near the
Tower. Henoe the first quarter is called Old
Jewry, the seoond quarter Poor Jewry. i
Policy led the earlier Norman kings to be
friend this gifted and useful race againBt the
monks and against the mob. Rufus, indeed,
was so far attached to them that some writers
fancy he had thoughts of becoming a Jew
himself. But this is an inference from faots
whioh bear a totally different construction.
Rufus resisted any attempt to convert the Jews;
and on a notable occasion he called before
him oertain converts in Rouen, and bade
them return to the faith of their fathers;
whenoeit has been inferred that he was ia
faver of that faith. The truth was, Rufus
was in favor of "Klnsr's men.'. Jews were
profitable clients, and Rufus had no wish to
see their number reduoed by conversion, in
the reality of which be was not likely to be
lieve. The story told of him shows that the
question was one of money. Stephen, a
Norman Jew, oame to Rufus complaining that
his son had quitted the synagogue, and
offering the king a purse of sixty silver
marks to persuade him baok. Rufus took
the silver, and sent for the lad. "Sirrah," he
; cried, "thy father here oomplaineth that with
. out his lloenoe thou art become a Chris
. tlan; u this be true, I command thee
to return to the religion of thy nation
without more ado." "Your Graoe," said the
young oonvert, "doth but jest." On whioh
Ruins lvusnea np in sadden wrath: "What I
thou dungbill knave, should I Jest with thee?
Get thee henoe quloklv. and fulfil Taw mm.
1 mandment, or by St. Luke's face I shall cause
thine eves to do piuoicea out." The yon no-
man would not turn from his new ways, even
arusr suon a turont, uu wuen eiepnen saw
that the king had tailed in his promUe. he
asked for his money baok. But Rufus and
silver marks were not 10 do parted. "Why,
a v I ill J 1,1 i w . . .
man," said tne aung, - u wuat j, oouid;
and on the old fellow saying that he must have
eltbtr his son or hi silver at the king's hand,
Kufus gave him baok thirty marks to stop his
month.
Oxford was in tbat time almost a Jewish
ity. The bent house belonged to men of this
race, who boarded the English students, and
establiHhed schools for the study of Hebrew
law. Lombard Hall, Moses Halt, and Jaoob
Hall Were centres of leurning. A great syna
gogue was built, and the Jews were popular
with students andleamedtmen. Great rabbis
lectured on their faith, and two quarters of
Oxford were known as the Old Jewry and the
New Jewry.
The Jews grew fat, and fat men are Incau
tious. In the reign of Henry the First the
monks began to show their teeth; and from
this reign downward the Charon led the mob
to attack the Jews. In the reign of Stephen
they were fined and imprisoned; In the reign
of Rlohard the First they were massaored; in
the reign of John they were cheated and robbed;
and so far forward nntil the reign of Bdward
tbe First, when they were finally expelled the
kingdom, tinder pain of death. Then oame a
time of fcilenoe and exclusion. For three hun
dred years the law of England had no mercy
on the Jew. He was an infidel, a oagot, a
leper, a thing that oould not live npon the
English soil. The offenses charged npon the
Jews, and held to justify their expulsion from
a oonntry in whioh they had dwelt before the
Norman baron and the Saxon yeoman came
into the land, were suoh as to raise a smile in
more considerate and more orltioal times.
They debased the coin, they forestalled the
markets, they gibed at images, they poisoned
the wells, they strove to oonvert the Chris
tians, they kidnapped young children, whom
they saorifioed as burnt offerings.
One aoouBation roused the anger of the com
mons, a seoond justified suspicion in the
nobles. But our sires were far more Ignorant
and superstitious than unjust. Nine out of
every ten men in this kingdom believed that
Robert, of St. Edmund's Bury, was killed by
the Jews, and that his blood was sprinkled en
their altar by the h'gh priest. Our fathers
were not singular in these beliefs. No page
in the long story of popular delusions Is more
striking than that whioh tells of the widely
spread conviotion that Jews put men especi
ally boys and young men to death to get their
blood. This belief was found in Paris and in
Seville, in Alexandria and in Damasous, just
as it was found in Oxford and in London. Nay,
it is still to be found in the South and in the
East. Many personam Rome, and yet more
in Jerusalem, assure you that the Passover
cannot be properly kept unless the cakes are
mixed with Christian blood. No Easter ever
E asses by without quarrels in Zion provoked
y this superstition. The Greek and the Ar
menian cling to their old traditions, and
every little fray in the Holy City between Jew
and Christian leads to charge and counter
charge, whioh the grave and impartial Turks
have to decide according to their written
law. A few years ago these questions were
raised so often in Palestine, that the Sultan
issued a commission of inquiry into the faots
alleged and denied, when both sides were
heard, the Jewish books were overhauled by
mufti, and an imperial decree was issued, of
wnion an pasnas and cadis must take note,
declaring that the Greek and Armenian alle
gations were untrue. The higher English
koignts and had nobles other reasons for
their hatred of the Jews. Some of these
nobles may have really feared as they cer
tainly said they feared that the rioher Jews
wonld bribe the courtiers over to their faith.
Such things were freely said in Italy and
Spain. Still more, the Jews were muoh
more "liberal," as it is called, than their
sturdy neighbors. Many of the Jews were
learned men, and learned men are apt to laugh
at things whioh vulgar folks hold saored. An
Oxford Hebrew mooked St. Frideswide, saying
ne oonid cure as many sick persons as the
Baint herself. The legend runs that the
mocking Jew went mad and hung himself in
his own kitchen whioh is perhaps a polite
way of telling the tumultuous story of popu
lar ire and priestly vengeance. Some of these
learned men were learned in the way to ex
cite suspioion: they were alchemists, sor
cerers, and astrologers, professors of Marian
art, dealers in charms and amulets, agents of
tbe Seraglio and the Court. But their true
offense was they were rioh.
They were rich, and the world could not
forgive them. The fact is, the Jew, who is by
nature a shepherd and a wine-grower a man
who delights in the pasture and the garden.
and whose national poetry breathes in the tent.
the Hook, and the watercourse had been driven
by abominable laws from the courses whioh he
loved into tne praotioe or aots whioh were
originally foreign to his raoe. When a Hebrew
oould hold land of his own, he was neither a
peddler nor a money-lender. He sheared his
own sheep, he planted his own olives, he
pressed his own grapes, he threshed his own
oorn. Under that Roman law, whioh the
Church sent into Western Europe, a Jew was
forbidden to own land; henoe he was driven
into trade, whioh his genius oonverted into
a profitable calling. Most of all, he took to
buying and selling money; to lending on inte
rest and Beourity a vocation for which few
men are naturally fit. The Jews are dealers
in money, and nearly every man of influence
in the Plantagenet Court was in their debt.
That was offense enough, and for that
offense they were driven into foreign lands.
They were driven away from this island with
as muoh oruelty as their brethren afterwards
underwent in Spain. The Churoh put them
to the ban, cursed them, plundered them, and
drove them forth. For four hundred years
that stern decree was held. But a ohange was
coming for the holy raoe. The Iron Age was
almost past; and though the golden prime
was yet far off, the wiser spirits were looking
for a brighter day. Lather, Cranmer, Calvin,
all tbe great spirts of the Reformation had
been the nnoonsolous friends of Israel; and
when the sentiment of respect for private
judgment in affairs of faith had entered deeply
into men's minds, a habit of toleration followed
in its wake, of whioh the Hebrew found his
(hare.
The Puritans were warm admirers of the
Jews. They talked Old Testament. They
called their sons David and Abner; their
daughters Miriam and Hephzebah. They
regarded the commonwealtn as a new
Israel, and uromweii as a modern Joshua.
Some of the foreign Jews partook of these
fanoies. They thought the Lord Proteotor
might prove to be their Messias, and they sent
a deputation to juigiaua to maite strict,
inquiry into Cromwell's pedigree, expecting
to nnd in ms anoeatry aoine trauu ui neorew
blood. Under bis Protectorate they Hoped to
come back to their ancient ungiisn feomes.
Cromwell eat in bis ohalr of state, with the
open Bible before him, and with a petition
from a learned Jew in his hand. It was a very
adroit petition, and the writer was a very in
genious man. The petition began, in its queer
English, referring to the words of Daniel
itTknn r,i mmoveat Lines and settest up
kineB" facts which be hinted were allowed
. . . ... ll.t that Via
"to tne ena tne mtuik iuigu ui- ."
Highest hath dominion in man's kingdom, and
giveth the same to whom He pleases." It,
went on to say that no man beoomes a
governor of men unless he be first
called to that offloe by God. It then pro
oeeded to show that no ruler of meu had
ever been stall In his Beat of pews' who was
Inimical to the holy raoe; and olted in proof of
this strong assertion the ease or 1 haraoti,
Nebnobadneizar, Antioohus, Epiphauius, and
Pompey. The paper went on to say that no
oonntry whioh favored that raoe had ever
failed to flonrloh, though it refrained from
citing the examples of his seoond proposition.
Lastly, it (rayed the Lord Proteotor to repeal
the laws passed under the Kings against the
Jews, and to permit a synagogue to be built
In London. I
The author of this petition was Manasseh
ben Israel, a Jew of Portuguese desoent, then
living in Amsterdam a man of flue oultare
and unquestionable piety. English ambassa
dors had been received in the Dutch capital,
not only by tbe Government, but by the
ohurobes. Not the least eager to hall the
new Commonwealth were the Hebrew mer
chants and a grand reception was ao
oorded to her ministers in the synagogues.
Manasseh took advantage of this visit to urge
upon Cromwell the reoall of his people from
their long exile.
Cromwell favored the petition. The Lora
Chief Jastloe and tbe Lord Chief Baron re
ported against maintaining the old statute of
exolusion. The Lord Mayor and Sheriff de
clared that the City was willing to receive the
Jews as brethren. But the old enemies of the
Jews were still strong. ' The clergy, even the
Puritan clergy, could not see their way to
such liberal concessions as the lawyers and
oHzens were prepared to make. To the
divines, a Jew was a man of a Bttffneoked
raoe, who had rejected the true Messiah
and put the Son of God to a shameful
death. Owen, Cradock, and their brethren
turned over the leaves of prophecy. Manasseh
had very skilfully fallen in with Puritan ways
of thonght; hinting that the Judgment was
at hand, and the day of final reconciliation
nigh. Cromwell, struok by this suggestion,
urged the divines to adopt a healing policy;
but the preaohers held to the doctrine that the
Jews were a God-abandoned people, unfit for
association with Christian men. Cromwell's
eloquenoe was highly praised; and the sub
jeot being one whioh he knew, he probably
spoke beyond his nsual style; but neither
Glynn's law nor Cromwell's eloquenoe availed
in presence of these hot divines. The elergy
stood out; and even after Hugh Peters and two
other advocates of Manasseh's scheme were
added to the conference, the clergy were ob
stinate and powerful enough to defeat Crom
well's plan.
But tbe Lord Proteotor was a law nnto him
Belf. If a regular act could not be obtained,
empowering the Jews to settle in England
onoe again, not as "King's men," but as citi
zens and equals, men with legal rights,
he could and would permit them to come
in as "Proteotor's men." In that quality
a few of them came back from Amster
dam and Leyden. Under Cromwell, they
had no persecution to fear and no exao
tions to resist. They came back on suffer
ance only; but they soon established a char
acter in London which made them many
friends. In a few years, opinion underwent a
change; the olergy lost their power; the old
abominable laws were all repealed; and the
Jew, who had ventured to oome home as a
"Protector's man," became a peaceable and
prosperous citizen of the realm.
Among the Jews themselves, Cromwell is
regarded as the man to whom, under Ged,
they are ohiefly indebted for their happy re
turn to a oonntry whioh had cast them out
for 400 years. But Cromwell might never
have called that oonferenoe in the Long Gal-i
leryof Whiteball had he not been urged by
Manasseh ben Israel, the pious and able Por
tuguese Jew; a copy of whose rather scarce
petition to his Highness the Lord Pro
tector has been reprinted at Melbourne in
Australia a city whioh is more populous
than Jerusalem, and which is built on a con-;
tinent of which Manasseh never heard the
name. I
