Once at a church I attended, we had a Messianic Jewish man (otherwise known as a Jewish-Christian) speak to the congregation. He was a missionary whose desire was to convert fellow Jews to Christianity and his mission field was the Crown Heights section of Brooklyn. This neighborhood is distinctly Orthodox Jewish, and mostly populated with Hassidim, a very strict branch of Orthodox Judaism. They are the ones who have the hats and long side curls, etc. Anyhow, he handed out pamphlets and wanted to talk to people, and for his trouble he did not simply get the brush off, but was subjected to people spitting in his face. Literally. He told us that they screamed at him, and spit repeatedly.

Jews don't appreciate conversion attempts. Go and convert some Muslims they need it more. Since there are only 14 million Jews in the world they think Christian proselytizers should go convert others. You have a billion Muslims and at least one billion Hindus and Buddhists. So go work on them

Jewish people are suspicious of gentiles in general, and of Christians in particular. IF they are practicing Jews they consider the New Testament, anti semitic.

I'm Jewish and not suspicious of Christians nor do I consider the New Testament anti-Semitic. If Christians consider Jesus divine and part of the Holy Trinity it does not bother me in the least plus it is 100% legitimate. Islam is different. It is a fake and evil religion cooked up by a false prophet. Jesus, Moses, Abraham are real prophets. Muhammad is a false one. The good Muslims are the ones who have minimal participation in Islam

Most Jews have zero problem with the New Testament. It is a non-issue, not on our radar. Why on earth would it be? the converse is not true. Christians read and study the Old and New Testaments through maybe they skim through the Old Testament to get to the good stuff?
