How was Hitler able to get the Nazis to hold the majority in the Reichstag?

After the Great Depression, the people of Germany realized the democratic central government was not doing its job of keeping the economy stable. Thus people started to vote for the far right (the NAZIs) and the far left (the communists). During one of the elections, the Nazis were a few seats short of a majority by votes, so the Nazis played on the Red Scare and outlawed the communist party. Without the communist party as its rival, Hitler was able to obtain a majority in the government.

How did Jews in Germany thrive financially during the Great Depression?

The supposition underlying this question, namely that Jews were successful during the Great Depression, is untrue. The Jews did no better or worse during the Great Depression than did the average German. Hitler, and the Nazis in general, capitalized on the German people's ignorance of their own neighbors' suffering. The sad thing is that Nazi propaganda and Anti-Semitic propaganda is so strong that people continue to believe that the Jews were better off during this period when they were not.
