When the romans took control over the jews why did they allow the jews to practice their religious beliefs?
The Romans were tolerant of other people's beliefs and they allowed "foreign" religions as long as those religions or practices were not treasonous or were not detrimental to the empire in some way.Answer 2Because the Jews agreed to live by Roman rule.The Romans did not generally object to the religious beliefs of their subject peoples provided the latter also observed Roman religious practices. Jews and Christians of course refused to do this.The Romans never forced their religious beliefs on any people they subjected. On the contrary, they often embraced religious practices and even gods from other religions if they liked the look of them. You must remember that the Christians (and later, the Muslims) have been the only believers in history to hold that their religion is superior to anyone else's AND translated that conviction into converting others and suppressing their original beliefs .So by our standards, the Romans were religiously tolerant. By their own standards, it wouldn't even enter their minds to suppress a local religion unless its beliefs brought the locals in direct conflict with their political or strategic interests.The Romans were actually very tolerant of "foreign" and "different" religions.They also made a differentiation be religions (practiced since antiquity) and cults (new beliefs). The Jewish religion was recognized as being practiced even before Rome existed and was thus granted an exception for they "strange" refusal to sacrifice to the Emperor. Cults (e.g. the new Christianity) could not be granted such an exception and if their followers were to refuse to sacrifice to the Emperor then they would be persecuted to attempt to force them to sacrifice.
