First of all: Of all mankind, it was the Jews that were entrusted with God's words; and putting them down in written form. Rom 3:2 "it was the Jews to whom God's messages were entrusted" (JB Philips)
Of interest: It was only Hebrews who were used to pen all the books in The Bible; no non-Jews contributed to it. Even the NT was penned by Christians that were natural Jews; no Gentiles were used.
The rest of mankind should appreciate their role in this most important product.
Also: It was from among the Jews, that Christ Jesus the Messiah came. This was in keeping with God's promise to Abraham.
Even though the Jewish nation never recognized Christ Jesus as the promised Messiah; never-the-less the Jews had a preliminary role, towards the development of Christianity as a new religion.
Perhaps this is where their influence ends; and from Jesus time forward, it was Jesus who had the major influence in the development of Christianity; due to his teachings and his way-of-life.
