The objective of the following work is showing, through the First Book of Kuzari, by Iehuda Halevi, firstly translated into Catalonian by Rabbi Jordi Gendra, one of the first formulations of the aristocratic origin of the Jewish population, defended by one of the most important poets of Judaism during the Jewish Diaspora. The book explains that through a divine selection, Israel is constituted as the authentic aristocracy of the world, due to its condition of a prophetic population it is situated over the rest of populations and in the Creational scale it’s only superadded by angels.
