Long after the death of Moses, Jews celebrated their Passover with the death of lambs; and in the ghettos of walled cities, there were bloody marks upon the doors. In the Middle Ages, when the Jews were hated most bitterly by Christians, the legend arose that the blood upon their doors was that of Christian children whom Jews deemed the most suitable...
