There is that judgment of the nations as to how they treated the Jews.

ST?

I'm not sure that Matt 25 is describing (solely) the treatment of the Jews.

You were saying ...

I'm not sure that Matt 25 is describing (solely) the treatment of the Jews.

Jesus is a Jew, His "brethren" are Jews, the Church is the Bride of Christ, not the brethren of Christ... :-)

Matthew Chapter 25

31 "When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels
with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.

32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate
them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.

33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the
left.

34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, 'Come, you
blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the world:

35 for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me
drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;

36 I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was
in prison and you came to Me.'

37 Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see
You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?

38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe
You?

39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?'

40 And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you,
inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you
did it to Me.'

41 Then He will also say to those on the left hand, 'Depart from Me,
you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his
angels:

42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave
Me no drink;

43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not
clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.'

44 Then they also will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You
hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did
not minister to You?'

45 Then He will answer them, saying, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch
as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to
Me.'

46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the
righteous into eternal life."
