The composition Conciliator which was written by Menashe ben Yisrael was one of his greatest achievements. This work which he wrote in Spanish was primarily intended for Christian learned and religious people, to enable them to understand Judaism according to verses in the Bible and the explanation of sections which seem contradictory. Moreover, the composition was intended to strengthen the faith and the principles of Judaism in the midst of the Anusim. The book was highly successful and was translated into several languages and spread the name of Menashe ben Yisrael in the midst of non-Jewish scholars and honoraries.
