because the Jews gave Jesus up to the Romans.... there for putting the final nail in his coffin.
The religious zeal of the crusades seems to have produced much hatred of non-Christians at the time. For example, when Richard I was crowned as King of England and a crusader in 1189 there were serious outbursts of mob violence against the Jews in London and some other English cities, especially York.
A:The gospels depict Jesus as being sentenced to death by Pontius Pilate, a Roman governor, at the insistence of the Jews. Since the Romans had the power of life and death over their subjects, it was important to the early Christians to emphasise the role of the Jews in the crucifixion of Jesus and to minimise the role of Pontius Pilate. Any tradition that cast doubt on the loyalty of Christians could have been fatal to the emerging religion. Mark's Gospel, the first gospel to be written, shows Pilate offering to release Jesus for the Passover, but the Jews insist that Barabbas be released instead. Matthew makes it plain that Pilate attempted to prevail in saving Jesus and, when that failed, symbolically washed his hands. Luke's Gospel. written next, even has Pilate attempt to avoid trying Jesus by sending him to Herod Antipas for trial, then twice propose that he chastise Jesus and release him. In each of these accounts, the Roman magistrate is cleared of any wrong in the death of Jesus, causing the blame to fall on the Jews.The early Christians can be shown to have believed the Jews to be forever criminally responsible for the death of Jesus, for example with their persecution by Emperor Constantine and the Christian emperors who followed.A:The Romans (Gentiles) crucified Jesus Christ. The Jews crucified Jesus Christ. All of us crucified Jesus Christ for it was for our transgressions collectively, that He died to save sinners. In the redemptive plan of God, each one of us born of Adam's corrupt seed are responsible for sending Him to die. There is no "false accusation."We are all guilty.
The majority of Christians, not just Catholics did hate Adolf Hitler, you're correct. They did not endorse the genocide of millions of people because of their religion, and Christians believe that no one should be punished because of offenses of their ancestors. In short, the Jews in the 1940's had nothing to do with Christ's death, and should not be punished for it.
The Pope himself has said that the Jews as a whole are not to blame for the killing of Jesus. See the attached Related Link.Additional Answer:A deeper reading of Scripture would reveal to all who endeavor, that Jesus died for the sins of all mankind. Another way of stating that fact is 'every human' killed Jesus as the Bible tells us 'all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God' (Romans 3:23).As a Christian myself, I have a deep respect for all people regardless of their race, gender or faith. It is the lack of moral character that makes me dislike or better yet, avoid another.As a Jew, I love this question. First of all, "The Jews" didn't kill Jesus, the ROMANS did. Second, the whole "the Jews wanted Him dead" idea postulated in the NT smacks of anti-Jewish propaganda. A main focus of the NT is to show how Christianity is a "better" religion than Judaism. One way it does this is to cast the Jews in a bad light at every opportunity. This is one such example.
for not killing Antony when they killed Caesar

Medieval Christians blamed Jews for the killing of Jesus. Medieval Christians tended to blame the entire Jewish population for the death of Jesus, believing that the Jews had incurred a curse upon themselves through the role of certain Jewish leaders in Jesus' crucifixion. See the book of Matthew, chapter 27, verses 24-25 for the origin of this belief.

The Pharisees (religious leaders of the Jews at the time) did not like Jesus for many reasons:They thought that what he was saying was blasphemousThey were scared that he would start a rebellion against the Romans (If the Jewish people rebelled, the Romans would blame the Pharisees for the uprising and kill them)

AnswerThere was no division of Christians from Judaism during the time attributed to Jesus, or for some decades afterwards. The final split seems to have come in the 90s of the first century CE, when Christians were barred from attending the synagogues. The principal reason appears to be that the Christians had begun to blame the Jews for the death of Jesus - even Jews who were not present in Jerusalem or who were not even alive at the time.

There is no real evidence that the Romans ever punished the early Christians for any kind of disaster. The preferred official reaction to the presence of Christians was that if the Christians were discreet about their refusal to worship the Roman gods, they could be ignored. A Christian tradition holds that, in the mid-first century, Nero persecuted the Christians living in Rome because he blamed them for the Great Fire, but historians have been unable to find any evidence of such persecution or even a reason for Nero to want to blame them unjustly. The Romans believed that by refusing to worship the gods, Christians were risking divine wrath. So, while there is no real evidence that this occurred, there may have been isolated instances of Christians being punished because their lack of faith in the Roman gods, (for which they were accused of being atheists) which supposedly brought disasters on the people.
Blame the ancient Romans.
