“The Jews regard as profane all that we hold sacred; on the other hand, they permit all that we abhor.”
“The other customs of the Jews are base and abominable, and owe their persistence to their depravity.”
“The Jews are extremely loyal toward one another, and always ready to show compassion, but toward every other people they feel only hate and enmity.”
“They sit apart at meals, and they sleep apart, and although as a race they are prone to lust, they abstain from intercourse with foreign women; yet among themselves nothing is unlawful.”
“Those who are converted to their ways… the earliest lesson they receive is to despise the gods, to disown their country, and to regard their parents, children, and brothers as of little account.”
PUBLIUS CORNELIUS TACITUS - Histories
