His feast day and the continued use of his name for a school in Marostica raise significant controversies, particularly in the context of modern sensibilities regarding religious tolerance and the historical injustices faced by the Jewish community. Recently, his legacy has come under scrutiny as discussions around anti-Semitic narratives and their implications in educational settings have gained attention.
