@allison This kind of stuff has also led people to do bad history. To give an Renaissance example Pico della Mirandola he has the Spanish Jewish converts that move to Italy and they teach him. So as he's learning, hebrew are aramaic these teachers tell him about the kabbalah along with a lot of intellectuals around him becoming interested in the kabbalah. Because although this comes from Spain, he's told it comes from Moses, and so he builds this philosophical hyperdiffusionism Where Moses at the center and everyone Plato, Pythagoras; Aristotle and so was just learning from Moses or ancient jews.
