Saint Catherine de Ricci is a sixteenth century Italian Catholic saint who is famed as a Benedictine mystic and visionary. She is one of the lesser known of the Catholic saints, but one that bears a look considering her views of the jews as being responsible for the murder of Jesus Christ (i.e. Deicide) per orthodox Catholic doctrine and the text of the Gospels. (1)
Her early nineteenth century biographer Florence Capes also described her reoccurring vision of Jesus’ crucifixion thus:
‘Pilate questioned our Blessed Lord for half-an-hour, and then sent Him back to Herod. The latter contemptuously sent Him back after another half-hour's examination, which including the time of the walk caused Him to reappear before Pilate at half-past five. This magistrate, knowing the wickedness and treachery of the Jews, interrogated Jesus yet once more for half-an-hour, trying to find some means of getting Him out of their hands with- out compromising himself. But he yielded at last like a coward to their threatening clamour, and condemned Him to be tied to the column, there to undergo the torture of scourging. This cruel punishment, begun at six o'clock, only came to an end at a quarter past seven.’ (2)
We may nor may not agree with Saint Catherine de Ricci’s religious views, but we can certainly say that she was a fervently anti-jewish Catholic mystic and saint.
