The Jews

[DeaconDan]

The parents feared the Jews, does this mean they feared all Judean's, would not these people also have been Judean, it does seem to me also that they feared the religious leaders

The text does not say all Jews. Their fear would have been a general fear. The passage does not say any religious leaders were present.

Maybe I am looking at this in the wrong way. I am not in any way fighting with you, but if I said I feared the Canadians, wouldn't that mean all of them or any of them
