Jews as enemies of Christians Medieval Christians believed in the idea of Jewish “stubbornness,” which correlated to many characteristics of the Jewish people. Specifically, Jews did not believe that Christ was the Messiah, a savior. This idea contributed to the stereotype that Jews were stubborn but also extended further in that the Jews dismissed Christ so far that they decided to murder him by nailing him to a cross. Jews were, therefore, marked as the “ enemies of Christians ” and “ Christ-killers. ”
