Early Christianity rarely persecuted Jews for a thousand years

Evidence

The absence of systematic persecution of the Jews or widespread antisemitic writings in the first 10 centuries of Christianity would also weaken the argument that the new religion was inherently and consistently opposed to the Jews per se. Hostile figures such as St. John Chrysostom (347-407) wrote of the Jews as the source of all evil on earth, but such writings were not common and were often aimed indirectly as a way of attacking fellow Christians rather than the Jews themselves, who generally were not subject to sustained violence or particular discrimination. … The evidence at least until the tenth century if not later, therefore, is against a continuous history of persecution, even if older charges against the Jews were revived and recontextualized at particular moments and by particular individuals, both Christian and other. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 498

Categorization

• XREF: Connects to the broader literature on the origins of antisemitism and to the claim that anti-Jewish rhetoric often functioned as disguised attacks on fellow Christians — a pattern echoing how other moral panics serve intra-group political ends.
• QUESTION: Worth chasing: when exactly did the shift from sporadic hostility to sustained persecution happen, and which specific events mark that threshold?
