However, no one shall have the power to move from one place to another,… and to settle there of their own liking, unless they have obtained and given written permission to do so from us or our governors, chancellors and councilors. … Jews born in our monastery should be allowed to live with their parents as long as they are single and penniless; if they change, however, they are hereby forbidden to live and stay with their parents, and each one is obliged to ask us or governors, chancellors and councilors for permission to settle and establish himself in this or any other place where he wishes to live;… Anyone who, contrary to this order, stays with their parents for more than half a year … or who, after leaving them, establishes and runs their own household without obtaining permission, shall also be fined five pounds and shall be expelled by the officials of each locality. … Thirdly, the Jews living in our monastery should not have their public synagogue or school anywhere, neither in towns nor in the country, but they may have their children instructed in their laws in their houses … Every Holy Sunday, as well as on obligatory holidays and festivals, they [Jews] should not engage in any trade in the morning during church services … nor should they allow themselves to be found in front of the church or in open places with horses, cattle or other goods,… When they are accustomed to holding their feast day, they should not do so in open and public places, but rather in their houses … During Holy Week, Jews, men and women, should remain quiet and withdrawn in their houses and not show themselves as freely as at other times … Fourthly, if the Jews want to celebrate a wedding and call and invite their friends to it, they should first ask the local official for permission and approval, and if it is permitted, such a wedding should be celebrated in silence and not in public … Sixthly, as Jewish women also bathe, this should be done unnoticed, secretly, and so early or late that no one is offended by it. Seventh, Jews are not allowed to play with any Christians, neither in open inns nor in Christian or Jewish houses, nor to organize or hold drinking parties, under penalty of five pounds. Eighth, they [Jews] are not allowed to speak or argue with Christians about the faith, under penalty of severe punishment. Ninthly, if a Jew, old or young, dies, they should not be taken out for burial on Sundays or holidays, but should be postponed until the next working day;… On the tenth, any Jew who employs Christians to work on a Sunday or a weekday will be fined three pounds, and the Christian who engages in this will be punished at the discretion of the official. … The Jews in our diocese are to be completely forbidden from buying real estate, houses, farms, fields, meadows, vines; but if someone wants to buy a small house, he should first ask us or our governors, chancellors and councilors for permission. … Twenty-second, the Jews in the towns, villages and hamlets where they live should not keep more livestock than is necessary for their own household, or what is permitted to a person in advance by our governors, chancellors and councilors,… Twenty-thirdly, the Jews should not carry rifles or other prohibited weapons, but common weapons should be permitted to them. Twenty-fourthly, all Jews who currently have their home in our foundation must pay the protection and shelter fee imposed on each Jew every year, and in the future, without fail. However, we expressly reserve the right to increase such protection or shelter fee according to our opportunity and the need that arises.

[… because], Jewish inhabitants are not easy on those houses so that the owners are often forced to make repairs which is no surprise given that the buildings are often several hundred years old. There appears to be a secret agreement among them that no Israeli is to rent a house that was vacated by a co-religionist — an accusation that need not be dismissed. That is why it is necessary to proceed against such scams with laws […] to protect the Christian owners. […]
