Pablo Christiani (or Paul Christian; né "Saúl" or "?שאול בן" ) was a controversial Sephardic Jew who, having converted to Christianity, used his position as a Dominican friar to endeavor to convert other Jews in Europe to Roman Catholicism. Early Life and ConversionSaúl (Shaul ben ?) was born in 13th-Century Spain to a pious Jewish family,[1] and he is believed to have been a student of Rabbi Eliezer of Tarascon.[2] Having married a Jewish woman and fathered children with her, he took his children from his wife when he left her after he converted himself and the children to Roman Catholicism.[3] He then joined the Dominican Order as a friar.[1] The Disputation of Barcelona and AftermathPrior to the 1263 Disputation of Barcelona, he followed Nicholas Donin's lead in attempting to ban the Talmud, which he argued had "irrational" textual material.[4] As for his participation in the Disputation, it was his attempt to convert Nahmanides and other fellow Jews to Christianity. The failure to convert anybody during the Disputation did not, however, discourage Christiani. Through the agency of Raymond de Penyafort and with letters of protection from King James I of Aragon, he went on missionary journeys and compelled Jews everywhere to listen to his speeches and answer his questions, both in synagogues and at wherever else he pleased. He even required his audiences to defray the expenses of his missions. Campaign Against the Talmud and Immigration To FranceIn spite of the protection granted him by the king, Christiani did not meet with the success that he had expected on his missions. He therefore, in 1264, went to Pope Clement IV and denounced the Talmud, making assertions that it contained passages that were derogatory in regards to Jesus and Mary. He thus affected the pope to issue a bill that commanded the Bishop of Tarragona to submit all copies of the Talmud to the examination of the Dominicans and Franciscans. The Bishop of Tarragona then ordered King James to appoint a commission that consisted of Christiani and others whom would act as censors of the Talmud. Christiani and the rest of the commission hence redacted all of the passages which they deemed were hostile to Christianity. Five years later, Christiani interceded with King Louis IX of France and obtained from him the permission to enforcement of the canonical edict that required Jews to wear badges which would single them out as Jews.
