Summary note
A biography of Luther. Pp. 290-297 deal with his attitude to the Jews, citing passages from his letter to Josel von Rosheim (1536), his pamphlet "Of the Jews and Their Lies" (1543), and the "Admonition against the Jews" added to his last sermon (1546). He called on rulers not to tolerate Jewish economic exploitation and to take strong measures against them as enemies of God - i.e. to burn their synagogues, confiscate their books, and expel them. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism).
