The Inquisition was an ecclesiastical court. It had no jurisdiction over Jews.

The Catholic church claims to have jurisdiction over everyone whether they like it or not.

Not in ecclesiastical law it doesn’t. Find me a pair of Jews, Protestants, or even Orthodox and try to get a case heard before a Catholic marriage tribunal.

No Jew can be charged or convicted of heresy. Only a Catholic can. That is just how ecclesiastical law has always worked.

Right here, in black and white from a scholar who works in this field:

“Contrary to general myth, the Inquisition never had any specific jurisdiction over Jews”
