I heard he was Jewish, which explains why he left to explore in 1492. Queen Isabella called for the inquisition, kicking out and executing all Jews and Muslims in 1492, which coincides with when Columbus left Spain.
Because around that time being a Jews were considered heretics and would be thought of as helpers of the devil. They would then torture them, without spilling blood until they died or confessed.

Crypto-Jews are Jews who hide their religion in order to avoid persecution. The most famous crypto-Jews were the Sephardic Jews who stayed in Spain or Spanish-controlled countries, in violation of the terms of the Edict of Expulsion signed in 1492. The Spanish Inquisition was formed to find and try crypto-jews (and also crypto Muslims). The Inquisition lasted all the way until the 19th century and extended into Mexico and South America. There were times when Islamic fundamentalism swept North Africa and forced Jews to go into hiding there, so there were crypto-Jews there too, but the these waves of intense Islamic persecution never lasted for centuries, so Jews in North Africa usually emerged from hiding fairly quickly.
