How would you feel if there was an occupying imperial army in your country? There were collaborators who tried to live with the occupiers (the Saducees). There were separatists who tried to live despite the occupiers (the Pharasees) and there were rebels who wanted to fight (the Zealots). To keep the Zealots down, the Roman forces crucified thousands; that was the usual fate of anyone thought by the Roman forces to be advocating rebellion. In the year 66, the Zealots revolted, and it took Rome 7 years to quash the rebellion. In the process, they destroyed the Temple in Jerusalem. Between 115 and 117, there was another revolt, and a final revolt in between 132 and 136. The Roman response to the final revolt was to destroy Jerusalem and sell a big fraction of the surviving Jews into slavery. To quote Monty Pythons's Life of Bryan, "the Jews are revolting," was nearly the normal state of affairs.
