Abstract:
Focuses on views found in rabbinical literature of the 17th century regarding "the Converso problem" in the Netherlands - how to deal with Conversos who had arrived in the Netherlands from Portugal, those who returned to Judaism (whether fully or else not in the traditional way) and those who wished to remain Christians. The writings show that the rabbis made a concerted effort to bring back to traditional Judaism those who had strayed.
