Sephardic identity was multi-layered and incorporated categories of local provenance, nation, language, migratory patterns, ethnicity, and religion.

These observations would seem to point to the fact that Venetians and Jews operated in the same way, had a common language of communication, and were in constant contact, both on Venetian soil and abroad.
