Before Judea became a client state of the Romans in 63 BC.The people of Judea had good relations with Rome. However, after it was annexed into the Roman Empire in the 1st century BC. The Romans ruled the Jews. There was often a tense relationship between them. There were two Jewish revolts against the Romans: the First Roman-Jewish War (66-73) and the Bar Kokhba revolt (132-135). These rebellions cost the lives of many Jews. The 66 AD rebellion caused the Temple in Jerusalem to be destroyed by the Romans. Thus the strong animosity that permeated most of the relationship between ancient Rome and Judea. was also the Kitos War (115-117) which was a rebellion of Jews who lived in the Roman province of Cyrenaica, in eastern Libya.

Answer:

Hyrcanus and Aristobulus, the two sons of the Jewish King Yannai (Johanan Hyrcanus, 1st century BCE), got the Romans involved in Judea when they asked the Romans to settle a dispute. At first the Romans were cordial; and they actually became party to a military treaty with Judea (Talmud, Avodah Zara 9a). A couple of decades later, however, they unilaterally abrogated the treaty, and placed Roman governors over the land who afflicted the Jews with crushing taxation (Talmud, Yoma 9a). In the first two centuries CE, things got worse, with the Romans destroying the Second Temple and temporarily outlawing Torah-observances, and the Jews attempting to revolt. The Romans destroyed large numbers of Jewish communities in the Holy Land, and they killed some of the leading Jewish sages.

(During those times that the Romans didn't interfere with the internal life of the Jews, the reason was because the Romans wanted to receive their taxes. That, and making sure none of their colonies planned rebellions, was usually the only thing that the Romans were really concerned about.)
