Abstract EN

England remained almost devoid of Jews until the mid-17th century AD, where a number of factors made it possible for Jews to enter and settle in England.

The old and the prophecies that it contains about the return of the Jews to Palestine, to the rule of England led by Oliver Cromwell.

In addition to the emergence of Marrano Jews with great business experience at the global level.

The emergence of these factors coincided with the rise of commercial and colonial competition between the Atlantic countries of Europe, especially between England and the Netherlands.

The Netherlands attracted a number of Marrano Jews after being expelled from the island of Iberia in 1492 and benefited from their trade experiences.

Correspondence between the Puritans and the Marrano Jews living in the Netherlands culminated in the issue of allowing the Jews to enter and settle in England.

The convergence was due to the openness of the Christians to the study of the Old Testament and its literal interpretation, which helped to spread the Hebrew culture and the spirit of tolerance of Protestant Christians toward Jews Parliament did not agree to return them, Prime Minister Oliver Cromwell declared his support for the return of the Jews, but the matter remained without a new decision, until 1656, which allowed them to build a synagogue and a private cemetery for Jews in England.
