Let us therefore beware of the Jews, and their synagogues, and let us burn their synagogues, and let us destroy their houses, and let us take away their prayer-books and Talmuds, and let us forbid their rabbis to teach anymore, and let us deny them safe-conduct on the highways, and let us take away their money and all their treasures, and let us compel them to work, and let us drive them out of the country.
— Martin Luther Early Modern

Leader of the Protestant Reformation
