I know Jews wore gold stars but what if they just covered them up or pulled them off? How would the Germans tell who from who? Did Jews have a different accent?

Jews had been in Germany for many hundreds of years and had become apart of the culture. They worshiped in temples in Germany and were generally accepted in the communities. After losing World War I the Jews were viewed as scape goats for the loss by the National Socialist Party (the Nazi Party). When Hilter rose to power many people just turned in there neighbors. It wasn't hard when you grew up in the same community as them to no who they were.

Before rounding up Jews, the Nazis compiled careful lists of citizens who were registered as Jewish in the public rolls, were affiliated in any way with the Jewish community, were identified as Jewish by their birth certificates, and so on. In America, it is possible for Jews to live their whole lives without being specifically identified as Jewish, but this was not the case in Europe before World War II. A very few Jews pretended to be average Germans and managed to escape detection for a while, but for the vast majority such a possibility simply did not exist

Jesus Was Born type the tribe of Judah (A son of Jacob or additionally recognize as Israel) in order that made him a Jew, again while Jewish humans have been persecuted. Back then the Jewish humans have been looking forward to the Messiah to come back. Many Jews consider that Jesus used to be that Messiah many did not. It wasn't the All the Jewish humans who have been the demise of him. Jesus forgave them at his demise so I do too. If there have been 2 sort of Jewish humans.... individuals who consider that Jesus is the Christ and people who do not (love it used to be on the time of Jesus)... Jesus might be within the organization who does consider.

The Nazi side usually carried tattos of numbers. Sorry, those are the Nazi soldiers. I think Jews were a minority and lived among a certain poor area. The hidden ones probably didn't show their religion at all and hailed Hitler to save their hydes.

Jewish people have different features from that of Aryan people... the nose, hair and even eye color can be distinguishing enough !!! They took note of who gathered with known Jews and assumed they too were Jewish !!!

God commanded the Jewish people to be circumcised. It was pretty rare for for anyone else in Europe to be missing their foreskin. If in doubt, the Germans had them drop their pants and the difference was pretty obvious. It was humiliatiing and got them killed and the same time.

in the anne frank biography, it says they were badges and they had a curfew, where they were allowed to go to work and home and school and home, i guess that is how you would know they were jewish.
