The Jews resented Roman rule because it inhibited the liberties and freedom they would otherwise have had. Justice was cruel in those days and the Romans would take harsh measures to bring any area into conformity. Actual Roman law was relativelycivilized, as I understand it. But enforcing violations of the law was often very cruel and harsh and somewhat arbitrary.

You and I would resent it very much if our society remained intact while a foreign-based layer of government was added on top. This was the situation with the Jews under Roman rule.
