The ordinary Jewish person played no real part in the death of Jesus. Those who were the political and religious leaders wanted Jesus removed as He was a threat to their understanding of religion and God. According to the New Testament, these leaders searched for any excuse to have Jesus condemned, even bringing forward witness who lied (Matthew 26:60). However, the Jewish leaders could not sentence anyone to death and so had to bring Jesus to the Roman governor, Pilate, for this to take place (John 18:31). Therefore, although it was Pontius Pilate who ordered the crucifixion of Jesus, it was the Jewish chief priests and elders who requested that this be done.
Christian answer:In addressing a group of Jews about their role in the death of the Messiah, the apostle Peter said the words in Acts 3:14-17.

gnostic gospels have a timeless, ahistorical, and almost disembodied character to them. Their Jesus has no racial identity, engages in no public debates, and indeed occupies no historical space at all. This Jesus not only did not die on a Roman cross and subsequently rise again, but could not have done so, since his very mission was to propound secretly to a small circle of disciples the unreality of what we take to be human life and death. Far from embracing a role in the Jewish story about God, creation, and Abraham and Sarah's children, the gnostic Jesus purports to expose all these as illusions conjured by a creator-god-a god intent on keeping a select few from transcending the material world of variation and change, of sex and procreation. These gospels, then, are far removed from the issues and controversies that would have arisen from a Jesus Christ situated in the story of Israel and the Jews. canonical gospels are appropriately defined as early Christian works that seek to present the significance and meaning of the death and resurrection of Jesus by placing them in their proper religious-historical context, which includes, of course, the events of Jesus' public career.
Caliphs the high priest tried Jesus , but as the Jews did not have the power to send anyone to death. He then sent Jesus to Pilate to sentence him to death on the cross.

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.

Jesus was one of many young preachers claiming to be the messiah. He was not well known at the actual time of his death and so the majority of Jews would probably not have had an opinion on him at all. Jesus has never been relevant to Judaism. The Jewish messiah has yet to arrive; he will be a normal, mortal man and he must fulfill the 23 Jewish messianc prophecies before he dies. The only time Jews today ever consider or mention Jesus is when Christian Evangelists repeatedly demand to know 'why' we don't worship him. Jews are forbidden to worship any human, and we regard as blasphemy the idea that G-d would ever appear in human form. Thus Jesus has no role to play in Judaism. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
