the community attacked

La communauté de Cuenca fut attaquée lors des massacres qui ravagèrent la Castille.

Les aljamas castillanes ne se relevèrent pas de cette année. Là où la communauté subsista, elle était réduite, appauvrie et voisine d'une population de nouveaux chrétiens issus d'elle, dont beaucoup continuaient d'observer les commandements en secret. C'est ce voisinage, et non le judaïsme lui-même, que l'Inquisition sera créée un siècle plus tard pour surveiller.
