In 587 Recared, the Visigoth king in Spain, converted to Roman Catholicism and at once began a persecution of the Jews. The persecution of the Jews was partly due to a power struggle against the Visigoth nobility who protected the Jews and used them as their agents. The king, the Church, and the common Spaniards were all against the nobility and by getting at the Jews they were weakening the Visigoth aristocracy. A frontal attack on the Visigoths was difficult since these already had a reputation for assassinating their monarchs and were not happy with the change of religion.
