Jesus did the Jews a real favour.  All they had to realize was that no man come to the father but through him and it'd all be fine.  Of course, if they didn't choose to go through him they could look forward to two thousands years of fear, abuse, torture and murder.  But it's not as if he didn't give them a choice or anything. 

Yes, yes, let's talk about Jesus, one of the worst things to ever happen to humanity.  The father of all guilt trips, the original enemy of original thought, the most divisive name in human history.  Yes, Jesus, what a guy.  I'm so glad that we finally can speak the truth about him here.  After all, what's this forum for anyways?
