The baptized and confirmed Catholic Adolf Hitler didn’t get his anti-semitism from Luther, probably got it the same place Luther did, the Catholic church. But it is interesting that the Nazis used Luther’s work, perhaps because they needed to convince Lutherans and Protestants about Jews. It seems the Catholics were already onboard.
The Bull Hebraeorum gens ("The Jewish Race") 1569, of Saint Pius V, which expelled Jews from some of the Papal states, began with these words:
"The Jewish people fell from the heights because of their faithlessness and condemned their Redeemer to a shameful death. Their godlessness has assumed such forms that, for the salvation of our own people, it becomes necessary to prevent their disease. Besides usury, through which Jews everywhere have sucked dry the property of impoverished Christians, they are accomplices of thieves and robbers; and the most damaging aspect of the matter is that they allure the unsuspecting through magical incantations, superstition, and witchcraft to the Synagogue of Satan and boast of being able to predict the future. We have carefully investigated how this revolting sect abuses the name of Christ and how harmful they are to those whose life is threatened by their deceit. On account of these and other serious matters, and because of the gravity of their crimes which increase day to day more and more, We order that, within 90 days, all Jews in our entire earthly realm of justice -- in all towns, districts, and places -- must depart these regions."
20 years after ML was dead.
A listing of Papal actions against Jews.
From the 19th century, 300 years after Luther:
Pope Leo worked diligently -- some would say harshly -- to reestablish firm control over the Papal States. Pope Leo re-instituted difficult rules against Jews living in the Papal States and followed a diplomatic policy that supported the royal houses of Europe.
Pius IX began rudimentary representative political reforms in the Papal States. He removed many of the restrictions on Jews and tore open the gates of the Jewish ghetto in Rome.
“removed many” not all.
In the three decades of his papacy, Pius IX would develop an enormous personal following among Catholics worldwide.
While Luther’s excesses regarding Jews are deplorable, all Luther had were words, the Papacy had the deeds, while Luther talked, the Papacy acted.
They chose Luther as their false prophet. "Four hundred years after it was written, the Nazi Party displayed On the Jews and Their Lies during Nuremberg rallies, and the city of Nuremberg presented a first edition to Julius Streicher, editor of the Nazi newspaper Der Stürmer, the newspaper describing it as the most radically antisemitic tract ever published.[43]" They implemented what he advocated in writing. He became, and died, an utterly repugnant and evil antisemite.
