The Jews resented Roman rule because it inhibited the liberties and freedom they would otherwise have had. Justice was cruel in those days and the Romans would take harsh measures to bring any area into conformity. Actual Roman law was relativelycivilized, as I understand it. But enforcing violations of the law was often very cruel and harsh and somewhat arbitrary.
You and I would resent it very much if our society remained intact while a foreign-based layer of government was added on top. This was the situation with the Jews under Roman rule.
Actually they were not tolerant and forbade the public teaching of the Jewish bible and the law. Many well known Rabbinical leaders such as Rabbi Akiva were executed. Additionally, Pilate, who had control of the region, was infamous for his extreme cruelty. Under his rule, over 10,000 Jews were crucified.
There were Jews, mostly elite men who endorsed Roman rule. They had already endorsed Greek rule before the arrival of the Romans and had become Hellenised (had adopted Greek customs). This was resented by Jews who were more faithful to their religion and had already caused conflict among the Jews before the Romans. Many Jews resented Roman rule. Taxation was a main grievance. There was the political movement of the Zealots, which during the Great Revolt or First Roman-Jewish War, advocated rebelling against the Romans and expelling them from the Judea by force. The sicarii was a splinter group of the Zealots who also wanted to expel the Romans.
