For the rest, they harbored no prejudice against the adherents of other faiths. Their object was to oppose heathenism, but towards Judaism and Christianity they felt no animosity. It was, there- fore, fortunate that they came into mental contact with the Jews in the cloudless Spanish period.
The Jews understood Greek, and in con- jews as junction with the Arabs, they trans- Translators lated the scientific literature of the Greeks and Syrians into Arabic, and later, without the collab- oration ...of the Arabs, into Latin. The whole ex- tent of the activity of the Jews as translators was revealed only a few years ago through the devoted industry of a single inquirer, the astonishing result of whose scholarship would seem to have required the strength and duration of ten lives. The Jew- ish translators were a corps of about two hundred men, physicians, mathematicians, astronomers, philosophers, poets. Their one aim was the trans- lation into Arabic of the most prominent works on philosophy, on the exact sciences, and on the fine arts.
