Yes. That is the root of the rift between Christianity and Judaism. People were forced to choose one or the other - or be persecuted Literally, the persecuted became the persecuted. (I prefer the German: die Verfolgten werden die Verfolger)

Which is the main reason why there so many churches today. The original intent of the reformation, was to get back to what the scriptures were really teaching. But everything was already so corrupt, that it only took hold in very small groups.
