>>There's a long European tradition of associating Jews with the devil and Judiasm with devil worship, frequently allied with various blood libels. Horns on Jews in Passion Plays are nothing new, I believe Oberammergau kept the tradition up until the 1980s. IMO to think this represents some insight into the dress of the time rather than the millenia long canard of Jews as devil worshippers is naive.<<

I'm Polish and Catholic. From this picture, if I were in charge, I would tell Stash to lose the horns and Star of David on those charaters.

Star of David didn't exist until about the 17th century. In the first century AD they would have been out of place simply because they didn't exist.
