Answer 1

yes,Jews were able to practice their religion

Answer 2

Yes, in Judea at the time of the Roman Empire there was freedom of religion.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the time of the Roman Empire, there was freedom of religion throughout the territories of the empire. In fact, the imperial law warranted freedom of cult and Roman citizenship to all the peoples under Roman authority, under the condition of remaining loyal to the Empire and paying tributes to the Emperor. For this reason, in Judea, Jewish people could continue with their monotheistic religious practices in spite of being ruled by the Roman Empire, which held a polytheistic pagan religion.

It continued this way until the year 70 AD, the year in which the Romans suppressed a Jewish rebellion and, then, expelled the Jewish people from their ancestral land. It was the beginning of the Jewish diaspora and, since then, Jews migrated to different regions of the Middle East, North Africa, and Europe.
