How does the devil keep Jews away from Christ?

The Apostle Paul wrote in Romans that:
â€œIsrael has failed to obtain what it was seeking by obedience to the Law. Only a few obtained it while the rest became callously blinded and insensitive. God has given them (the Jews) a spirit of slumber, eyes that would not see, ears that would not hear, even to this very day,â€ Rom. 11: 7,8. AMPC
Most Jews are spiritually blind to the truth that Jesus the Christ came in the flesh. Instead of believing the Gospel & receive righteousness by faith, they busily try either observing the Law of Moses or just remain secular and ignore God altogether.
But in Jewish culture & tradition along come the Jewish Feast days including the winter feast of Hanukkah.
The majority of Jews are aware of the first 2 commandments brought down Sinai by Moses:
You shall have no other God beside Me. You shall not make yourself any image (or statue) and worship it. Exod. 20:3,4.
When the Jews celebrate the Feast of Dedication, they restudy with their children around the lighted candles of the menorah, how the wicked king Antiochus Ephiphanes captured Jerusalem and desecrated the Temple.
They learn how the brave family of Maccabees led a revolt against this king who was suppressing their freedom of worship and getting his soldiers to take a portable statue of himself throughout the land.
Jews were forced into worshipping this statue of Antiochus & proclaiming him to be Zeus incarnate, in the flesh.
The overthrow of Antiochus & the cleansing of the Temple in 164 BC is still being celebrated in this yearly feast.
The spiritual hatred of the idea of a man becoming God incarnate thus becomes reinforced every year. The idea of it is blasphemy, as it was in AD 33 as Jesus made His claims to be â€œOne with the Fatherâ€ in Solomonâ€™s porch. John 10:30
Jews continue to wait for their Messiah perhaps expecting Him to be a strong political or military leader.
They remain unconvinced by scriptures like Isaiah:
3 He was despised and rejected and forsaken by men, a Man of sorrows and pains, and acquainted with grief and sickness; and like One from Whom men hide their faces He was despised, and we did not appreciate His worth or have any esteem for Him.
4 Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses, weaknesses, and distresses) and carried our sorrows and pains [of punishment], yet we [ignorantly] considered Him stricken, smitten, and afflicted by God [as if with leprosy].
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord has made to light upon Him the guilt and iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, [yet when] He was afflicted, He was submissive and opened not His mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so He opened not His mouth. Isa. 53:3-7AMPC

Or Danielâ€™s night vision: I saw in the night visions, and behold, on the clouds of the heavens came One like a Son of man, and He came to the Ancient of Days and was presented before Him.
14 And there was given Him [the Messiah] dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion which shall not pass away, and His kingdom is one which shall not be destroyed. Dan. 7:13,14 AMPC.
Perhaps now though as a believer in Yeshua, you are more knowledgeable to point them to Christ, Who died for all, both Jew & Greek.
