They had to keep their Jewishness to themselves, and not go into the outside world too often.

The answer to this question entirely depends on the time and place where a Jew lived. A Jew today in the United States or a Jew in 1100 in Toledo, Spain did not have to worry about being killed on account of their Judaism and as such were quite open about it. In Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union, this was obviously not the case. In the case of Nazi Germany, Jews had to actively escape the country or find a way to get to the labor camps where they could push off their ultimate death. In the Soviet Union, they had to continually pretend to be atheists.
