As Christians we should, as Jesus commanded of us: "Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you." This is one of the hardest commands by Jesus to follow, but we must always strive to - no matter how bad a person or people have been to you and yours.
It was no secret that influencial Pharisees worked against Jesus. They encouraged the Roman authorities to do away with him. He was a threat to their rabbinical order and place in Jewish society. And, when Pilot asked the Jewish crowd who they wanted to be spared, it was not Jesus. There certainly was an anti-Christ spirit amongst some Jews and their Roman overloards (who were pagan).
When we read the New Testament it becomes clear that Jesus sought to protect His church(followers) from the deceptions of the Pharisees and those who would carry their false teachings into the future. Jesus condemn Pharisaism and its oral law - the Talmud. Jesus warned the church to "beware of the leaven of the Pharisees."(Lk. 12:1) He described such Jews as the "Synagogue of Satan" (Rev. 3:9). John described them as embodying the spirit of anti-Christ (I Jn. 2:22) and Paul warns they are "enemies" of the gospel (Rom. 11:28).
What is most important is that Jesus was the final sacrifice. "It is Finished", as He said - He was the final atonement. Some Jews and Samaritans took up their cross(figuratively) and followed Him at the time. The Tanuch was fullfilled in His death and resurrection.
Sadly, some Israeli Jews find it difficult accepting Christian Arabs in Israel. The link below describe what Christians have to deal with - Jews spitting on them, the Holy Cross and other Chrisitan icons, along with undemocratic apartheid living. It is a Zionist state and if you are a non-Jew, you are not an equal.

Because the Jews are the Chosen People. The Bible teaches that we are to stand by the Chosen People of Jesus. I don't think they still believe that Jesus was their King. I think a few have but not many. After 3 1/2 years into the Tribulation they finally realize what they have done.That is when the 144,000 Jews enter into Heaven. They don't go in the Rapture. We have to stand with Israel or Jesus said he will not stand with us.

add a Star Of David to the cross and that should provide aknowledgement that Jesus was a jew. also as jews also believe in God perhaps common ground can be found.ever wounder why both Christians and jewsare in separate places called different things sounds like religious segregation. if Chritians could work something out where both could be in the same place together where Jesus is set on equal terms with Judaism and right next to Islam like it always was but under one roof. so Judaism. Christianity, Islam, the people side by side in the same place each practicing belief in their own way . why not that this should resolve this problem if acceptable. obviously not desired but possible. then women priests for Christianity the details to be worked out between the three if idea workable. join houses no need for God to have three different types of houses God would have to be split up to fit in each one. course bein God not impossible. might point out though that killing of the believers of God makes no sense as the killed will either meet eachother in Heaven or not want to go there.so people believe in God have to stop killing eachother because if they continue they only prove they do not believe in God.

Well I happen to have known a few Jewish people that became Christians. Yes the Jews did call for the crucifixion of Christ. It was the Romans who carried it out. So that means that Jew and non-Jews were responsible for killing Christ. The thing is, is that they did not kill him. That is what everyone seems to miss. He arouse on the 3rd day. So he is not dead, but living. The other thing is that, they nor anyone could do anything that God does not allow. So in with your argument then, you could argue, why did God Kill Christ. He had the power to stop it right? The point is that in order to fulfill His work he had to die and then rise again. We in a since should be thanking the Jews for helping in allowing Christ to fulfil his goal, to save man.

The Romans killed Jesus. Jews never went round crucifying people.
Jesus and all the apostles were Jews. Christianity only got started a few hundred years later.
Christians respect the Jews and I respect the Jews, why? Maybe because they've earned that respect.

Do you have the execution papers to prove that it was Jews, and not Romans as your New Testement says, that killed Jesus?
If not, do you have a couple of stone tablets from God saying that Jews should be punished by people instead of God, for something that the Romans did?
You damn fundies are nuts.

Your ignorance, which shows lack of an education, proves that you shouldn't write questions about something you know nothing about.
Here's some advice; Stay in school, pick up a book and turn off the t.v. Practice your spelling and grammar. When all is done, you can come back and play with the big kids!

Conditioned by pop-prophecy writers and preachers to view them as "chosen people".They forget that we are saved by Grace and not race[Gal.3] and that Jesus clashed with them constantly.And that Palestine was renamed Israel to dupe Christians.They forget REVELATION 2:9.P.S.sparkplug is misfiring badly.She is parroting the pretribber nonsense most nominal christians believe in America.Biblical Christians know we are going to be here when the Antichrist arrives and must be prepared for it.The Strong Delusion means there will not be 144,000 Jewish converts.That number is symbolic of all saved Christian souls throughout history.And God does not bless a given race over another.

OK, lets for a moment say some Jews --(note the plural, we are not some entity or force) killed Jesus.
And lets go even further and say I am a direct descendant of an individual that had a hand in killing Jesus.
How on earth am I responsible for that? If someones Great-grandfather was an Axe murder is he at fault?
When your able to gather some brain cells and answer me, I will be waiting.

You're the one crippled in your beliefs.
I'm an atheist, but the Jews didn't even kill Jesus.
Plus, Jesus was a Jew. So why hate the religion that started yours?
