		By the leading nobles Boleslaw was thoroughly hated as a despot; the masses of the people murmured under the burden of incessant wars; the clergy opposed the energetic reformation of the Church, which the king was carrying on, their opposition being particularly directed against Gregory's decree enforcing the celibacy of the clergy.
		Henceforth Boleslaw the Great assumed the supervision of the Polish church, and the Church, founded and organized with the co-operation of the rulers, was placed in the service of the State.
		Boleslaw granted the churches tithes, which the nobility were unwilling to pay; the resulting disturbances (1022) were soon suppressed.

		Several circumstances conduced to spread the belief that the use of human blood among the Jews was directly associated with the Feast of Passover.
		The maẓẓot, for example, were, to secure purity and absolute absence of leaven, prepared with peculiar ceremonies incomprehensible to Christians, and were, therefore, invested with an element of mystery—a circumstance enhanced by the great and somewhat superstitious value then (and even today) placed by many Jewish people upon the Passover bread.
		It was natural to compare it to the wafers used at the Christian communion, when, by eating the wafer, the pious Christian believed that he partook of the body and blood of Christ; the blood purifying from all sin, and working miracles.

	Central Europe Review - Jews in Poland
		The status of Jews in Poland was determined by the charters of Boleslaw the Pious in 1264 and Kazimierz the Great in 1334, 1354 and 1367.
		There were several consequences of this - the most important being the creation of the Pale of Settlement, a band of territory stretching north-south across the former western "borderlands" of the Russian Empire - from Lithuania to the Black Sea.
		True, there were certainly impoverished pious Jews in urban centres as well, but they were at least more exposed to a mixed polity and therefore more likely to be affected by it.

		The Jews of Poland learned from experience, and after a few years in their new settlements, they organized themselves into communities which would serve as a base for their continued existence there.
		To this end they also endeavored to obtain from the authority governing the land on which they were living, a charter of privileges and rights, and in 1264 Boleslaw the Pious, ruler of western Poland, granted this privilege.
		In an expanded form (beginning in 1453) this charter served the Jewish community of the entire kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania until the second half of the eighteenth century.
