Basically.
“The Jews” in most English Bibles is the Pharisees, not the general population. Yeshua was at odds with them almost universally due to their replacement of his Torah with their Takanot and Maasim (AKA oral Torah) and made it clear that they were not among those that the Father gave him.

...they were not among those that the Father gave him. Like Samaritan dogs?

I realize that you like to think you are the only one who has an understanding of Old Testament scripture and Israels history and Gods dealing with them. You constantly castigate others with a haughty attitude as if your supposed superior knowledge somehow makes them less of a Christian. Well, Ive got news for you. There are many of us who have not only studied that history but also have friends who can trace their lineage back to the people of Israel. In fact I have one friend who grew up in Israel. Your Johnny come lately supposed knowledge does not impress them nor does it impress me.
I have spent untold hours with them studying the significance of not only the feast days and laws but the customs and significance of things down to the individual construction materials of the tabernacle in the wilderness. We have followed the progress of the preparations for the building of the new temple and understand its significance for the nation of Israel and place in prophesy.
I would suggest you take your haughty Pharisaical attitude and sing it to the choir of the cult of the Hebrew roots movement.
