| | Persecution of the Jews: The Nuremberg Laws |
 | | Jews were barred from civil service and on April 7; the German government issued an order firing all civil servants not of "Aryan" descent. | | | The certificate was required for a marriage license (Race Laws 1). | | | Citizenship, at that time, was the only status that conferred specific rights and privileges on individuals before International Law asserted that people have rights regardless of whether or not they have citizenship under a nation state. |

| | THE PERSECUTION OF THE JEWS IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE (300-438) |
| | The punishment for Jew's apprehended in unlawful ownership of Christian slaves is not specified by this law, and this omission seems to argue that it was probably a fine at the discretion of the judges and not torture or execution. | | | If any Jew has obtained a slave of another sect or national group than his own, the slave shall at once be confiscated to the public fisc: furthermore if he has circumcised the slave after buying him, then not only shall he suffer the confiscation of the slave, but also he shall meet capital punishment. | | | But we do not deny to the Jews who have been trained in liberal studies liberty to follow the law, and we permit them to have the honor of the curial service, which they can enjoy by their privilege of birth and nobility of family. |

| | That convention charged the United States with allowing and even authorizing persecutions that, in their words, would Òhumble the proudest, crush the energies of the strongest, and retard the progress of the swiftness.Ó During this time period Jews were also being similarly persecuted. | | | At the same time male Jews between the ages of sixteen and sixty years of age were required to pay a monthly tax to support the military. | | | The act of persecuting or pursuing with enmity and malignity; esp., the infliction of death, torture, or penalties for adherence to a religious belief or an opinion as such, with a view to the repression or extirpation [extermination] of it; the fact of being persecuted; an instance of this. |

| | But the methods employed never conformed to a single pattern. | | | Units of the Security Police and SD in the occupied territories of the East, which were under civil administration, were given a similar task. | | | These atrocities were all part and parcel of the policy inaugurated in 1941, and it is not surprising that there should be evidence that one or two German officials entered vain protests against the brutal manner in which the killings were carried out. |

| | Jewish persecution: 70 to 1200 CE |
| | It prohibited Jews from building synagogues, reading the Bible in Hebrew, assemble in public, celebrate Passover before Easter, and testify against Christians in court. | | | 1179: Canon 24 of the Third Lateran Council stated: "Jews should be slaves to Christians and at the same time treated kindly due of humanitarian considerations. | | | This was based, in part, on the beliefs by Chrysostom, Origen, Jerome, and other Church Fathers that God punished the Jews with perpetual slavery because of their responsibility for the execution of Jesus. |

| | Religious Persecution of Jews by Arabs |
| | Even this punishment was unlikely, however, because the law held the testimony of a Jew or a Christian invalid against a Muslim, and the penalty could only be exacted under improbable conditions-when two Muslims were willing to testify against a brother Muslim for the sake of an infidel. | | | Omar, the caliph who succeeded Muhammad, delineated in his Charter of Omar the twelve laws under which a dhimmi, or non-Muslim, was allowed to exist as a "nonbeliever" among "believers." The Charter codified the conditions of life for Jews under Islam -- a life which was forfeited if the dhimmi broke this law. | | | The demeanment of Jews as represented by the Charter has carried down through the centuries, its implementation inflicted with varying degrees of cruelty or inflexibility, depending upon the character of the particular Muslim ruler. |

| | The Persecution of Jews in Hungary and the Catholic Church compiled by Dr. Andras Zakar |
| | With reference to the deportation of Jews from Hungary, one should mention that exceptions were made in the case of some wealthy Jews and their families, Weiss, Chorin, Kornfeld, etc. (1,684 individuals). | | | As head of the team authorized by the Papal Nunciature, he issued thousands of safe conduct passes and when Jews were later driven into ghettos he obtained special permission from the authorities to be with them all the time, caring for them in fourteen emergency hospitals and two chapels. | | | Therefore, we do not object to, but approve of, any necessary and justifiable reforms of the economic structures which need to be undertaken for the abuses to be remedied'. |

| | In certain countries it often led to civil and political discrimination against Jews and in some instances to physical attacks on Jews which resulted in death. | | | It was only in the mid-twentieth century that the Catholic Church and many Protestant denominations issued major statements repudiating this anti-Judaic theology and began a process of constructive Christian-Jewish interaction. | | | While some Popes, bishops and Christian princes stepped up to protect Jews, they were clearly a minority. |
