Abstract

In this article, we aim at. discussing how the bishop Isidore of Seville conceives the Jewish question. In order to do that, we analyze the Fide Catholica ex veteri et novo testamento contra judaeos, in which he tries to demonstrate the Christian truth and the Jewish blindness. His aim was to look for the solution of the Jewish question, by means, of the conversion of the Jews. He believed that was the way to complete the Sixth Era of the World Christian history and to accelerate the rapprochement of the Last Judge.
