The bond state, I can take pound of flesh from any part of his body. Also the bond was sealed today with his blood. It is like father Abraham laid mercy on me by giving this chance, a chance to make revenge on Christians and Antonio. Oh, the name Antonio angers me , he the one who called me a dog, spat on me in the Rialto and called me unbeliever and his reasons is that I am Jew. When the day comes in three months from now and he can’t pay the three thousand ducats. I will say to him look to your bond!!!
I will not give mercy for him. In the other hand maybe if I do lay mercy on him and , if all ships does not come back in three months and thus Bassanio won Portia’s hand in marriage , I can get the money that they owe thrice as much. Also, if neither that happens I can make them my slaves for life because I’m see as a fiend or a devil. He hates me because I am Jew and I lend money with interest. What I his problem with us Jew, we are human like them. In an instance if you poison a Jew and a Christian both of them will die.
What else then he expect me to do if I don’t lend money; Jews are only entitled as professional bankers. We can’t own land, we could not seek for any other jobs and we are mistreated and their reason is that we are a Jew. Is it because we can’t accept their god and entitle him like another prophet or is it because a Jew killed Jesus who is also a Jew? O father Abraham helped me have peace of mind Launcelot is giving me headache, how slow is he. I know need to know need to go cause I might loss more money if I do not go now. July 29 1601
The Term Paper on The Pope The Jews And Hitler
OVER THE past four decades, the attitude of the Catholic Church toward Judaism and the Jews has undergone a sea change. On the theological level, the decisive event was the Second Vatican Council, which in 1965 finally lifted the collective charge of deicide against the Jewish people, reversing the longstanding Augustinian view that the Jews would eternally bear the mark of Cain. But of no less ...
Today my servant Lancealot, Gobbo’s son informed me that he wants to serve Bassanio. He who is a Christian that borrowed money from me and used Antonio as a bond. Oh, that little merry devil will indeed will leave me today. He says Bassanio is giving out new uniform for his new servants that are going to Belmont with him to woo Portia. Ay, what a proud, they borrowed money from me and not only that they took my servant , also with the money they’ve borrowed. Gladly, oh dear to hear, Lancealot also informed me that Bassanio, is celebrating a feast to night ,indeed.
I did not thought that three thousand will washed away this easily, oh my, my , I forget that Bassanio is on the line here. Bassanio who live the high life with out his reach . the one who owe money to everyone to a lot of people . what a truly wasteful man he is. Tonight I will see him throw away his money that might guarantee me more money of revenge!!. I just feel disgusted that they only invited me to flatter me . also , I don’t want to go because last night I dream of money bags and I feel something fishy will happen tonight by that I may regret . tonight ill just go to see Bassanio waste his money
