## Resource

Convened by Pope Innocent III in 1215 , the Fourth Lateran Council was one of the most influential church councils of the Middle Ages, shaping Christian doctrine, church governance, and the relationship between Christians and non-Christians. Among its many decrees were several that profoundly affected Jewish communities across Europe, including requirements that Jews wear distinctive clothing or badges, restrictions on holding public office, and limitations designed to reinforce separation between Jews and Christians. In this episode, we'll examine why these measures were enacted, how they transformed Jewish life in medieval Europe, and why the Fourth Lateran Council remains a pivotal moment in the long history of Christian-Jewish relations.
