Why Did Jewish People Hate The Romans

Jew were considered an ethnic group of people within the Roman empire, whose religious ways and how they practiced them set them apart from other groups. The Roman Empire would set decrees that allowed the Jewish people to continue to practice their religion, plus they had to pay taxes for the temple that was in Jerusalem. Even though the Jews could practice their faith there were still a lot of resentment and friction among the Jews toward Rome (Jews, 1998, pg. 171). There were other issues that caused the Jewish people to hate the Romans, such as, the corruption of local and senate government, their taxes not bring brought back into their local economy, but instead going to the elite class of people (Oates, 2018).
