So let's try another angle. Anyone got a good cultural history of Sephardic Jews in Medieval Spain?

How a Portuguese citizenship loophole became a door into the EU.
A 2013 law was supposed to make it easier for descendants of expelled Portuguese Jews to obtain citizenship. But its loose rules allowed a lucrative business to emerge, which is now at the heart of a judicial investigation.

When Europeans went to America they didn’t find ancient manuscripts of Shakespeare: because they were colonisers
Jews in Israel find ancient manuscripts written in Hebrew, the same language they speak today, describing the same rituals they observe: because they’re indigenous.
