Competition for converts and other factors led to an intensification of Jewish-Christian conflict towards the end of the first century even though there is evidence of continued Jewish-Christian interaction, including Christian participation in Sabbath worship, in some areas well beyond that. These conflicts are believed by some to have had a negative impact on the writers of certain parts of the New Testament especially[citation needed] the author of the gospel of John which was compiled about this time. In several places John' s gospel associates "the Jews" with darkness and with the devil. This laid the groundwork for centuries of Christian characterization of Jews as agents of the devil, a characterization which found its way into medieval popular religion and eventually into passion plays. Many verses in the New Testament (NT) can be seen as critical of Jews, in particular the Pharisees, the form of Judaism that became dominant after the destruction of the Temple in 70 C.E. The most famous verse in this respect is Matthew 27:25, which states Then answered... This article is about the Christian scriptures. ... For other uses, see Gospel of John (disambiguation). ...


In the second century and beyond, many of the principal Church Fathers began to write of Jews as a "rejected people" who were doomed to a life of marginality and misery. Jews were to wander the world as a "despised people." This image persisted in Christian preaching, art and popular teaching for centuries to come. In certain countries it often led to civil and political discrimination against Jews and in some instances to physical attacks on Jews which resulted in death. However, many Popes, bishops and some Christian princes stepped up to protect Jews, although it was only in the mid-twentieth century that the Catholic Church and many Protestant denominations issued major statements repudiating this anti-Judaic theology and began a process of constructive Christian-Jewish interaction.

The theologian Hans Küng, whose authorisation to teach has been stripped by the Church, has written that "Nazi anti-Judaism was the work of godless, anti-Christian criminals. But it would not have been possible without the almost two thousand years' pre-history of 'Christian' anti-Judaism..."[1] The Reverend Father Hans Küng (born March 19, 1928 in Sursee, Canton of Lucerne), is an eminent Swiss theologian, and a prolific author. ...

Anti-Judaism

Perhaps best described as "religious antisemitism", anti-Judaism is a manifestation of a religious hostility toward Judaism, based in Christian religious doctrine. Some students of Jewish-Christian relations distinguish anti-Judaism from antisemitism, regarding antisemitism as not specifically targeting the religion of Judaism.

Although some Christians have considered anti-Judaism contrary to Christian teaching, it hasn't been expressed by leaders and laypersons. In many cases, the practical tolerance towards the Jewish religion and Jews prevailed. Some Christian groups, particularly in early years, have condemned verbal Anti-Judaism. During the past 180 years, many Christians have had anti-Jewish attitudes. Some historians and many Jews hold that for most of its history, most of Christianity was openly antisemitic and that the severity, type and extent of this antisemitism have varied much over time; the earliest form was theological anti-Jesus. An example of state-sponsored atheist anti-Judaism. ...


Some apparently anti-Jesus ideas present among Christians are not a result of specific anti-Jesus Bible ideas, but instead a manifestation of Christian interjection of other religions as alternative ways to God. In this sense, Christianity owes a debt of gratitude for the past, yet asserts that the time of Judaism is past, therefore invalidating Judaism as a viable means of salvation.


Nazarenes were early Jews who embraced Jesus as the Messiah and were the first Messianic and Jesus movements.-1...


Antecedents of Christian antisemitism

Scholars of ancient civilizations have revealed the presence of a cultural antipathy towards Jews and their religion in Greco-Roman society. There is little question that some of the early Gentile converts to Christianity shared in this cultural bias. As Gentiles they also were not well acquainted with the internal life of the Jewish community at the time of Jesus. Hence they read many of the New Testament texts as condemnations of Judaism as such rather than internal quarrels which were commonplace within the Jewish community of the period.


Early Divisions

There have been philosophical differences between Christianity and Rabbinical Judaism since the outset. Debates between the Early Christians - who at first understood themselves as a movement within Judaism, not as a separate religion - and other Jews initially revolved around the question whether Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah or not, which also encompassed the issue of his divinity. Once gentiles were converted to Christianity, the question arose whether and how far these Gentile Christians were obliged to follow Jewish law in order to follow Jesus (see Paul's Letter to the Galatians). At the Council of Jerusalem, (Acts 15), it was decided that new gentile converts did not have to follow all of Jewish law, in particular circumcision, however observance of a subset, (the Apostolic Decree of Acts 15:19-21), was requested which some consider to be related to Judaism's Noahide Law, (see also Old Testament#Christian view of the Law for the modern debate), but Paul also questioned the validity of Jewish Christian's adherence to the Jewish law in relation to faith in Christ, see also Antinomianism, Law and Gospel, Pauline Christianity.

The increase of the numbers of Gentile Christians in comparison to Jewish Christians eventually resulted in a rift between Christianity and Judaism, which was further increased by the Jewish-Roman wars (66–73 and 132–135) that drove Jews into the diaspora and reduced the influence of the Bishop of Jerusalem, leader of the first Christian church. Early Christians also found in the Old Testament prophecies which seemed to indicate that God's original covenant with the Jews would be expanded to include also the Gentiles. Thus the Church Fathers tend to emphasise that the Church is the new "spiritual" Israel, replacing the earthly Israel which was but its prototype. (Significantly, Vatican Council II, far from repudiating this patristic interpretation, stated in 1965, "the Church is the new people of God".) Jewish-Roman War can refer to several revolts by the Jews of Judea against the Roman Empire: The First Jewish-Roman War (66–73 CE), sometimes called the First Jewish Revolt. ...

Also, the two religions differed in their legal status in the Roman Empire: Judaism, restricted to the Jewish people and Jewish Proselytes, was exempt from obligation to the Roman imperial cult and since the reign of Julius Caesar enjoyed the status of a "licit religion", though they were also occasionally persecuted, for example in 19 Tiberius expelled them from Rome[2] and in 49 Claudius expelled them from Rome[3]. Christianity however was not restricted to one people (neither is Judaism, see Conversion to Judaism for details), and as Jewish Christians were excluded from the synagogue, see Council of Jamnia, they also lost the protection of the status of Judaism, though said protection also had its limits, see for example Titus Flavius Clemens (consul) and Akiba ben Joseph and Ten Martyrs. Since the reign of Nero Christianity was considered to be illegal and Christians were frequent
