When the Romans took over the Jews why did they allow them to practice their religious beliefs?
Although the Romans were harsh rulers who extracted as much taxation as possible from those under their rule, they were tolerant of other beliefs, such as those of the Jews and, for the most part, those of the early Christians. Because Jewish dietary laws made military service impractical, Rome exempted the Jews from military service.
All this changed under Rome's Christian emperors from the fourth century onwards, when Judaism was barely tolerated.
