What did Jesus say or do to indicate He hated the Jewish culture?

being a Jew, I'm pretty sure Jesus was cool with it, he was a rabbi, he wore the tassels and the side curls he taught the fulfilment of the hebrew scripture, his early followers considered themselves messianic Jews, a lot of the early church's debate was about whether us goyim could be included in the church, he quoted the law of moses and he celebrated the Jewish holidays, don't let anyone give you the anti semitic Jesus crap, they're justifying their own irrational fear and prejudice

Well...I would say some of the things Jesus said were only relavant to the time. Since you are Catholic, and I am as well we can probably relate with some of this better. So here it goes:\n\nObviously some of the things that Christ talked about (such as the references to the types of clothing and locations in the world etc...) are general and relevant only to those of the time. I don't know many people who walk around wearing cloaks anymore and we don't execute people by crusifixion anymore so...some of those things are irrelevant, but are important for us to understand.\n\nThe whole thing about not eating pork could be taken a few ways. I don't know if that was because of refigeration...I doubt it, but it could be. Catholic's do not do it because we don't think it's needed. Food is food is food. To have something kosher just means that it must meet certain dietary laws. Jewish followers, as far as I know, are the only individuals who follow that law. It could be for refrigeration purposes, but I think it has more to do with how the passages and laws are interpreted than that. Probably something to do with passover or something...I really don't know, might want to ask a Jewish person that one.\n\nIs it possible that some of Jesus' words were only relevant to those he was talking to at the time? Sure! But Jesus came for the world, so his words are for the world! He may have said he gave the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven to Peter, but he didn't give them to me or you. They were for Peter and whoever Peter gave them to later on. So yeah, I'd say that's a fair statement.

You really don't PRACTICE Christianity if you don't like Jews.

you do understand that she is under-educated and ignorant to the many different types of people out there, and not mean spirited in nature. so that is good. she needs to grow and be made aware, more concious. this is not something that will happen over night, but you can help develop her awareness and open her heart. \n\njust continue pointing out her mis-perceptions in a non-confrontational way (noone likes to be told they are bad or wrong) and offer a new viewpoint. you should say that some of the things she says can hurt your feelings, she should be made aware that it is disrespectful to use the term Jewish in that way. you can say that Jesus was a Jew, and that Christianity is built on the the foundation of Judiaism. \n\npoint out that stereotyping is something an emotionally lazy person does that does not want to get to know each individual. it is also a sign that she is a very harsh judge on herself, so she probably is looking for self love and acceptance. \n\neducating her on the negative power of racism- how Hitler got a whole country to agree in his evil by seperating and de-humanizing people. it is a very serious thing. \n\nThis may take some time, but you are doing a great service for her, and the people whos lives you both touch.\n\n*peace

What? Jesus never said lets leave Judah. What? all the prophets say Israel will "win" in the last days. What> jesus said you wont see me again untill the last days as he assended . What? yet he appeared to Paul on the road to Damascus (the very man that hates jesuses followers)and gives him a plan to bring jesus to the heathens .    Jesus revealed many things to his disiples he never said this man would come along and set the way the new formed congregations (or there even should be congregations) conduct there buisiness. Once established, being set aside from judah, being involved in war and oppression ever since and Judah has been the victim many times ,but now Israel is home Christianity will be used to defend Judah and its rights till the final day. What an interesting arena   this human game is being played out in. I wish I was around to see the Dinosaur game being played! All 66 books are important, probably even more! (ps  ------  try to establish who wrote the scripts for the opposing players oh if you believe somthing  you just end up trying to prove what you belive and will have trouble really seeing the facts)  love to all

they are the extremists, trust me.  Most christians can accept and will respect Judaism as a religion.  However, in the bible, it says that A Jewish man betrayed Jesus.  Thats why *some* christians *hate* Judaism.

artistic license.  What Jesus actually looked like is unknown.  He was definately of Middle Eastern decent.  He most likely was unshaven.  He probably had shorter hair (as was the common jewish style at the time) unlike the long haired interpretations.

You obviously never heard the stories of Jesus accepting sinners, lepers and pagans when Jews of his time shunned and out casted these people.  Do you bash Christianity because it teaches that being gay is wrong or are you just not knowledgeable about Christianity?  It sounds like you're bashing Christians.

Jesus was a Jew, as were his disciples. They believed in the words of the Old Testament. Most of what Jesus taught was from the Old Testament, he also taught new and revolutionary ideas, or so we are told. Remember that most of the New Testament was written a very long time after the events happened, by people that never saw Jesus or had any contact with him. Since Jesus was a real person who lived in ancient times in Judea, Jews would certainly believe that he existed, many Jews believe that he was a great prophet. Jews do not believe in the divinity of Jesus, as they believe in only one God, not in a God made up of three persons in one.\n\nJews, have been persecuted throughout history, going back to the time of Jesus and before. Mainly, they were persecuted for their strong religious believes, by people hung up on their own religious believes. Unfortunately, the Catholic Church for centuries maintained that the Jews were responsible for killing Jesus. This was a license for persecution. It is only in the twentieth century that the Catholic Church has apologized for their mistreatment of the Jews, a little late to help the millions of Jews that have been killed in the past. \n\nUnfortunately, people don’t need much of an excuse to persecute others. The fact that Jesus was crucified has been blamed on the Jews for centuries. He was actually crucified by the Romans, the Jews that may have had some complicity in his death were a very small minority of the people living in Judea at that time. To persecute people for the misdeeds of others is insane, especially if the guilty ones lived thousands of years ago. \n\nI suggest that you do some reading outside of the Bible about the history of the Jewish people, and the time of Jesus, and form your own opinion.\n\nGood Luck,\n\nPS. By the way I am not Jewish myself, I do hold the Jewish people in high esteem. There are very few groups that have done as much for the world in general as the Jews, and all this in spite of persecution by others.

Now, I'm not jewish, but I believe that anybody who reads the history of the jewish people with all that they have been through and can honestly that they hate them is just plain stupid.  As my mother always said Jesus was a Jew ;-)\n\nBesides how can ya hate the people that gave the world the BAGEL!

That He did say those things is true, and that He practiced them is likewise true, but what is your point? Is it to  denigrate Him, or His followers? That the Church has failed to follow His teachings has been  plainly demonstrated by history, as well as by the current crop of Christendom. So I take it you have issues with Him. I suggest you take those issues up with Him personally and quit trying to make us look bad; we are doing a pretty good job of that all by ourselves.\n\n Haven’t you figured out by now that people are happy with their ‘religion’, as long as it doesn’t cost them much or actually involve obeying Jesus’ commands? Thus He said in Luke 6:46 ‘Why do you call me Lord, Lord and do not the things I say unto you.’ \n\nShhhh, please don’t disturb the sleeping babes. Let them sleep, content in their religion, family values, covetous possessions, patriotism, worldly ethics and apple pie. The blast of the Trumpet should wake them from their slumber. Too late to prepare for the groom, but time to enjoy the fruit of their labors under the reign of the anti-Christ.

jesus was burried the way of the jewish people because he was jewish.  his followers called him rabbi, which means teacher, they became the christians, the ones who didnt believe he was the massiah remained jewish and just didnt follow him or his ways. there is a good site for you called beliefnet.com   check it out.

What do Jews say about Jesus?  Nothing.  No Jewish religious works reference him, nothing of what he said is studied- he is completely irrelevant to us.  In out opinion, Jesus was just one of many false messiahs throughout history.  Bottom line- to Jews he is a non-entity- of no importance beyond the fact that a religion has been established in his name which has, at times, been used as an excuse to persecute us- and through which lies and defamation about Jews has been spread.

Jewish people were concerned that the movie would fuel antisemitism. A concerned Rabbi Eugene Korn previewed the film before it came out and made the following statement,\n\n"We are deeply concerned that the film, if released in its present form, will fuel the hatred, bigotry and anti-Semitism that many responsible churches have worked hard to repudiate."\n\nAnother controversial aspect of the movie was its graphically violent depiction of Jesus' crucifixation. Some Christians were upset that the movie choose to focus on Jesus' violent death rather than other Biblical themes like the resurrection and his life experiences valuing messages of love, tolerance, and redemption.

The view from history would be "yes."  Many of the historical Jesus' teachings were related to reforming the practice of Judaism to be more assimilationist with the predominent Roman/Hellenistic culture in the region during the period of his life.\n\nSince he was interesting in reforming practice to "fit in," he might also be interested in reforming his looks to "fit in," as well.

Ignorance!  Jesus was a Jew and born and raised in the middle east and Egypt.  He was probably very dark skined from traveling by foot so much.  He was a carpenter by trade and spent a lot of time out doors.  He must have had an awesome tan!

Jews don't hate Christians so much as the distrust them, with good reason. We have a horrible reputation with them historically. But TV people don't make fun of Jesus because they're Jewish, but because they are irreligious. It's Just Satan having his say.
