| Unless I am mistaken, the Jews regard Jesus as a prophet rather than a deity. They follow the version of the bible that they wrote, not non-Hebrew translations.
Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I am fairly certain of what I did post...
As far as what they may have done that encouraged prosecution:
#1 They have a strong cultural identity that won them no friends in Feudal Europe.
#2 They had the bad taste to have a stronger faith than the Christians of that era.
#3 They are stubborn and want to do things their way.
Personally, I have a great deal of respect for the Jewish people, even though I think that belief in any God is silly... |
