General Notes
- p. 234-5. Judaized at 10. Parents--Gaspar Juárez and Rafaela Enríquez, sister--Ana Juárez, grandparents--Blanca Enríquez and Fernando Rodríguez. She spoke "la lengua guineota angola para entenderse con las esclavas y esclavos que sirven en las cárceles secretas." "decían que della había de nacer el Mesías; y en carnes, con un velillo de plata que parecía túnica, la sentaban en medio de todas, y puestas al rededor, en oración pedían al Dios de Israel que inviase a se Mesías prometido y naciese desta judigüela. Y acabada esta oración, la famosa judía de su abuela fingía que ya lo había revelado un ángel, y que, así lo tuviese por cierto e infiable." p.234. Also see the women-only ceremony/celebration that took place afterwards. She confessed only after coming near death.
