Yes and No. Jews typically were required to live in specific districts of a given a city, although, unlike the European ghettos, they were not locked into these areas. Jews and Arabs had a high degree of interpersonal relations and most Arabs had Jewish friends or neighbors and vice versa. However, during periods of upheaval or Arab pogroms, relations became estranged during the violence visited on the Jewish communities. Suspicion of Mizrahi Jews grew immensely in the 1940s when it was believed that they could be a fifth column for the Zionist movement in the British Mandate of Palestine.
It depends on what the question is asking. It is also worth noting that only a subset of Sephardic Jews, the Mizrahi Jews from Arab Lands, are relevant to this query. There are large numbers of Spanish Jews that have no connections to Arabs.1) Question: Did Mizrahi Jews and Arabs intermarry?The general historical narrative from both the Mizrahi Jewish and Arab Muslim communities is that there was not a high degree of intermarriage between Jews and Muslims during the period of the Islamic Empires and the overwhelming occurrences of such intermarriage were of Jewish women marrying Muslim men, resulting in Muslim families (since the Islamic Empires were governed by Islamic Law that holds that any children of a Muslim father are Muslims).The DNA evidence is ambiguous on this for three major reasons: (1) Most Arabs in the Levant, Iraq, and Northern Africa, where the largest populations of Jews were, were not ethnically homogenous with each other or with the Arabian Arabs. Since most were descended from the Pre-Islamic Semitic civilizations, they would naturally bear more genetic similarities to the Jews who were local Semites as well. (2) A large number of Jews converted to Islam and took on the Arab identity in order to avoid additional taxation and gain the right to government participation, so we would expect a large number of Arab Muslims to share genetics with Mizrahi Jews. (3) The similarities are what we would expect whether the historical narrative was correct or incorrect, giving us no new information.2) Question: Did Mizrahi Jews live alongside Arabs in a cosmopolitan way?Yes and No. Jews typically were required to live in specific districts of a given a city, although, unlike the European ghettos, they were not locked into these areas.

Israel's ethical groups are the same as any other country: Moral, Amoral, and Immoral. If the question meant ethnic groups as opposed to ethical groups, there are several major ones: Ashkenazi Jews from Western or Central Europe, Russian Jews, American Jews, Mizrahi Jews, Palestinian Arabs, Druze Arabs, Bedouin Arabs, Circassians, Armenians, and Greek Orthodox.
It depends on which Jews, which Arabs, and which setting.

Perhaps, but the rivalry seems to be one-sided. Judaism is not terribly concerned about the Arabs and is very internally focused. Arabs, however, often discuss Jews and blame many of their problems on the Jews.
yes he hates arabs and jews
Tradition states that Arabs and Jews are both descended from Abraham. The Arabs are from Ishmael, and the Jews are from Isaac (through his son Jacob). Both Ishmael and Isaac were sons of Abraham (Genesis ch.21 and ch.25). Arabs as well as Jews have this tradition. See also:More about Abraham and Isaac
Arabs are descended from Abraham just as Jews are. After that initial connection, Jews (Israelites) and Arabs have been distict peoples with separate languages and religions. Jews are descended from Isaac (son of Abraham), while Arabs are descended from Ishmael (son of Abraham). See Genesis ch.16, 17 and 21.
Arabs and Jews are in conflict over the territory of the former British Mandate of Palestine in the Middle East.
Arabs (including Palestinian Arabs) are descended from Abraham just as Jews are, which is why Arabs are called "our cousins" in Jewish Torah-commentaries. But after the initial connection, Jews (Israelites) and Arabs have been distict peoples with separate languages and religions. Jews are descended from Isaac (son of Abraham), while Arabs are descended from Ishmael (son of Abraham). See Genesis ch.16, 17 and 21.
According to Jewish and Arab tradition, the Jews descend from Abraham following the line of his son Isaac and the Arabs descend from Abraham following the line of his son Ishmael. So it may be said that Jews and Arabs had a common beginning. In terms of what science can tell us, while Jews have a strong genetic relationship to Levantine Arabs (Arabs in Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria), they do not have a strong genetic relationship with Arabian Arabs (who were the original Arabs and live in the Arabian Peninsula).
Jews are wealthier on average than Arabs are, but this is more a function of the fact that a much higher percentage of Jews live in first-world countries than do Arabs. There are also a number of Arab Oil Sheikhs who are extraordinarily wealthy, outstripping many Jews in their wealth.
