Long time ago I read the novel "Journey to the end of the Millennium" by A.B. Yehoshua. It's about merchants who trade between Marroco and the areas which are now Catalonia, a few years before the secondb millennium. I don't want to go into the details of the book, just that once they traveled all the way to Paris and then overland to the Alsace to get the blessings for a marriage of the main character Ben Attar to a second wife.
On the their journey the meat a barber surgeon who makes a prophecy telling them that in the second millennium there will be a terrible rise of Jew Hatred.because Christianity waited for Jesus to return in the year 1000. Since he didn't return they started to persecute Jews much more and then started to prepare for the Cruzades.
(Sorry, my post might be a bit confusing. I just remember this chapter and the argument because it made sense to me. What do you think, Uri? ?
