Not listed in any of the reference works we were able to consult. Very rare portrait of the false Messiah Sabatai Zwi (Smyrna 1626 - Dulcini in Montenegro 1676). He was a Jewish mystic, studied Kabbalah and was ordained as a rabbi when he was 18. When he proclaimed himself the Messiah, the rabbis of Smyrna banished him and he became a wanderer. He travelled to Greece, Thrace, Constantinople, Jerusalem and Cairo. News of the Jewish Messiah spread to Italy, Holland, Germany, Poland, country after country. He gathered a huge host of adherents, amoung them many prominent rabbis. The delirious joy of his followers knew no bounds. Many Jews began to prepare for the trip to the Holy Land. The Turkish authorities arrested him in 1666 and he was given the choice of immediate death or conversion to Islam. He chose Islam. - Well preserved. |
