prohibition on employing Christian servants and testifying against a Christian

Convened in Rome under Alexandre III, the Third Lateran Council legislates on the relations between Christians and non-Christians. It forbids Jews from employing Christian servants, dismisses their testimony when it stands against that of a Christian, and prescribes that converts to Christianity not be deprived of their property.

These provisions take up late imperial law and incorporate it into Church law, where they will be hardened by the Fourth Lateran Council a generation later. The council marks the moment when the Jewish condition ceases to be a matter of local custom alone and becomes a subject of universal legislation in Christendom.
