1838 Druze attack on Safed
The 1838 Druze attack on Safed began on July 5, 1838 during the Druze revolt against the rule of Ibrahim Pasha of Egypt. Tensions had mounted as the Druze captured an Egyptian garrison outside of Safed.〔Rossoff, David. ''Safed: the mystical city''. p.162-165.〕 The local Safed militia of several hundred was heavily outnumbered by the Druze, and the city was gripped in despair as the militia eventually abandoned the city and the Druze rebels entered the city on July 5.〔(p. 189 )〕 The Druze rebels descended on the Jewish quarter of Safed and, in scenes reminiscent of the Safed plunder four years earlier, spent three days attacking Jews, plundering their homes and desecrating their synagogues. Some Jews ended up leaving the town, moving south to Jerusalem and Acre.〔Emile Marmorstein (1975). ''Middle Eastern Studies'' II: "European Jews in Muslim Palestine". pg. 77.〕 Among them was Israel Beck, whose printing press had been destroyed a second time by the ruffians.
==Prelude==
By the 19th-century, the Galilean city of Safed comprised a major Jewish center. It had become a kabbalistic centre during the 16th-century, reaching a size of about 15,000 at its peak. Despite the decline through the 17th and 18th centuries, by the 1830s there were still around 3,500-4,000 Jews living there, comprising at least half the population. The Jews of Safed had been subjected to a prolonged attack in 1834 during the Peasants' Revolt: Over 5,000 Arab peasant rebels had launched a revolt protesting against legislation imposed by the new Egyptian ruler Muhammad Ali and some had used the uprising as an opportunity to attack the Jews. After several months, the Egyptians managed to crush the rebellion and regain control of the county and the Jews of Safed began to rehabilitate themselves. Not long after, Safed was again the scene of devastation when in 1837 a strong earthquake resulted in thousands of deaths and the destruction of many buildings.〔"(The earthquake of 1 January 1837 in Southern Lebanon and Northern Israel )" by N. N. Ambraseys, in Annali di Geofisica, Aug. 1997, p.933,〕 The northern, Jewish section of the town was almost entirely destroyed.〔 By 1838, the tense relationship between the ''fellahin'' and the Egyptian overlords was again mounting〔''One a day: an anthology of Jewish historical anniversaries'', p. 168, Abraham P. Bloch - 1987 ()〕 and a full-scale Druze revolt erupted in January. In summer of 1838, the Druze captured a heavily outnumbered Egyptian garrison outside Safed.〔Rossoff, David. ''Safed: the mystical city''. p.162-165.〕
