Thus, within Egypt, a strong wave of anti-Semitism arose, and the Egyptian Royal Family dispatched an army to destroy two store cities and demoted the Jewish community to slavery.
"So it turns out that Jews have excavated the traditional skills of lending, land grabbing, and usurping nests since the times of Ancient Egypt and have kept them alive to this day. Tsk tsk, truly worthy of millennia of wandering wisdom."
Luo En secretly mocked in his heart, a cold smile appearing on his face.
In the original history, the Jews enraged all Egyptians with these unethical acts and were eventually reduced to slavery.
Prophet Moses could not bear his kin suffering hard labor eternally, so he led the Jews to escape Egypt and return to Canaan.
But at this time, the Palestinian Territory was already occupied by the Philistines. The Jews resorted to their usual tactics, first appearing weak and pleading with the Philistines to take them in, to which the Philistines agreed.
However, this was the beginning of inviting trouble.
The Jews were not grateful for this refuge and did not learn from their history of enslavement in Egypt. Once again, they schemed and secretly stabbed the Philistines in the back.
With the medical and poisoning techniques learned from the Ancient Egyptians, they created a plague and then poisoned the well water, causing many innocent Philistines to die.
Faced with the unscrupulous Jews, the weakened Philistines were helpless, forced to hand over power and the land of Canaan.
The Jews sanctified this bloody history, proclaiming they returned to their homeland with God’s guidance and help, driving away the invaders.
Perhaps because of the unjust blame, God exerted His power.
Even though the Jews gained the land of Canaan, they didn’t enjoy it for long.
In the ensuing days, as if cursed, every time they went to war, it ended in a disastrous defeat.
The Assyrian Empire, Ancient Babylonian Kingdom, Persian Empire, Ancient Roman Empire—almost every famous dynasty in history took turns subjugating these Jews.
The Jews, defeated again and again, became prisoners out of desperation.
Yet, even so, they remained incorrigible.
Upon becoming a vassal of the Ancient Roman Empire, the Jews’ talents in finances and taxation elevated their status.
Consequently, the Jews felt their bloodline was noble again, God’s favor had returned, and they were powerful once more.
So, from 66 to 70 AD, near the end of Roman Emperor Nero’s reign, the Jews initiated large-scale revolts against Roman rule, known in history as the First Jewish War.
The result was that these stubborn ones were individually crushed under the iron fist of the Roman Empire, and the remaining elderly, women, and children behaved like meek lambs, submitting to the Empire’s rule.
The Roman Empire reinstated a tolerant policy towards Jews, allowing them to establish an autonomous Jewish province.
But within 50 years, these Jews reverted to their old ways.
In 113 AD, Roman Emperor Trajan, aiming to fulfill his ambition of conquering Eastern adversaries, withdrew almost all Eastern garrisons. Overnight, Jews in the vast Eastern hinterlands found no military restraints around them. This undoubtedly sparked Jewish ambition and revenge.
The Jews seized the opportunity to rebel, carrying out massacres in many places such as Salamis, Cyprus, and Libya, where the main residents were neither Romans but alien races or slaves also seen as third-class citizens. Conservative estimates say nearly 500,000 were ravaged to death by them, an event known as the Second Jewish War.
According to historical records, the deeds of these Jews during the war were appalling:
They ate the victims’ flesh, extracted their tendons, smeared themselves with their blood, and wore clothes made from their skin; many people were sawed in half from head to toe. Others were thrown to beasts or forced to fight like gladiators, leading to over 200,000 miserable deaths.
Rome’s eastern expedition thus failed, and the Roman Emperor was furious, ordering a complete eradication of the Jews, launching a similarly bloody revenge.
Surrounding countries also fully saw the true nature of the Jews, recognizing them as traitorous wolves who cannot be raised well. Even if Jews lowered themselves, other nations were unwilling to take them in, even more so, ruthlessly killing them upon sight.
From then on, Jews fled to various places, spreading their taint to later ages.
The usury that ruined countless European families in the Middle Ages, a loaf of bread costing 500,000 Marks in Germany, and five Middle Eastern wars—all had their shadow.
Pandora noticed her boss’s complexion was somewhat gloomy and cautiously asked:
"You seem to dis group of Jews?"
"Nonsense, Egyptians were quite good to the Jews, right? And what did they get in return? This is a bunch of ungrateful wolves, whoever favors them will suffer."
Luo En coldly snorted, his words revealing undisguised disgust.
Incidentally, although Judaism and Christianity are intricately connected, their relationship is very hostile.
The first reason is this: Judaism’s belief system is extremely xenophobic, with God considered the unrivaled supreme being, His identity absolutely sacred and inviolable, and Jews themselves are God’s favorites, holding equally revered status. Thus, they do not acknowledge the identity of that Divine Son and regard his proclamations of equality and God’s love for mankind as heresies and severe affronts to their religious beliefs. Out of this loathing, they reported and betrayed the Saint Heir who propagated the doctrines to the Romans, ultimately leading to the Saint Heir being nailed to the cross.
