Wolf, “Crypto-Jews under the Commonwealth” (_Trans. Jew. Hist. Soc._, vol. i. pp. 55 _et seq._); “The Middle Age of Anglo-Jewish History” (_Papers read at the Anglo-Jewish Historical Exhibition_, pp. 53–79).

Footnote 2:

The origin of this name is obscure. There seems to be little doubt that it was originally a nickname, seeing that the classical name for the converts was _Nuevos Cristianos_, or “New Christians.” Graetz believes that Marrano is derived from Maran-atha, in allusion to 1 Cor. xvi. 22, “If any man love not the Lord, let him be Anathema Maran-atha” (_Geschichte der Juden_, vol. viii. p. 73).

A good life of Menasseh ben Israel has yet to be written. Short biographies have been published by Kayserling (English translation in _Miscellany of Hebrew Literature_, vol. ii.); the Rev. Dr. H. Adler, Chief Rabbi of the British Empire (_Trans. Jew. Hist. Soc._, vol. i.); and Graetz (_Geschichte der Juden_, vol. x.). None of these is exhaustive, or based on bedrock material.

Footnote 40:

This tract has been the source of a curious misunderstanding. Kayserling, who apparently never examined more of it than the title-page, on which the author is described as “E. S. Middlesex,” ascribed it to “Lord Middlesex,” and regarded it as favourable to Menasseh (_Misc. Heb. Lit._, ii. p. 33). Had he looked at the Latin translation at the end he would have found the name of the author given in full. Moreover, the writer, so far from being philo-Semitic, expressly states that the object of his pamphlet was the “taking off the scandall of our too great desire of entertayning the unbeleeving Nation of the Jewes.” Kayserling’s errors have been adopted without inquiry by Graetz, Adler, and other writers.
