The answer of a recent genetic study suggests that around 20% of the current
population of Spain has Jewish Ethnicity.
That means 9,2 Million Spaniards, making Spain the country with the largest population of Christians with Jewish Ethnicity.
The footprints of Judaism have practically disappeared between those
Christians with Jewish Ethnicity, but not completely.
Many Jewish Christians do have philosemitism and do like a lot Israel and
the Torah.
That could be one of the reasons why Spaniards make so many trips to
Israel each year.

In classical Jewish sources such as the Torah, Jews are spoken of as a nation, with Judaism being their national code of living.Today, many speak of Judaism as both a religion and an ethnicity.

And it's a religion, because Judaism is defined in dictionaries as the religion of Moses; the religion of the Torah, which includes people born Jewish as well as non-ethnic Jews who became converts.

Silveira is a "new christian" last name, probably of Portuguese origin. New christians were people of jewish ancestry who were forcibly converted to Christianity mostly in Portugal but in Spain and France as well.Because New Christians were also forced to emigrate, many changed their last names to the names of trees or plants.
