How did the Jews treat gentiles in the time of jesus?

The role of the gentiles was a pretty messed up job. From my research, THey were basically pedophiles, Jesus did not like their role and personally, I don't think anyone nowadays would either. So even though The Bible doesn't mention about the fact that normal peasants would be sexually bothered and in some rare cases, raped to death, The Gentiles are a very bad religion.

The Jews at the time of Jesus thought they were superior to the gentiles, who were low casts to them. The jews claimed to be the direct children of Abraham. They treated the gentiles badly.

If Jesus commanded his Apostles not to preach to the Gentiles and later commanded Paul to preach to the Gentiles isn't Jesus contradicting himself?

No, there is no contradiction. Jesus' initial instruction to the Apostles was specific to their mission at that time, focused on the people of Israel. The command to Paul to preach to the Gentiles came later as part of the broader plan to spread the Gospel to all nations. This shows the progression and expansion of the mission rather than a contradiction.

What is the difference between Christians and gentiles?

Generally speaking gentiles are people that are not Jewish. However that is with the exception of some Jews that are also Christians. Normally, in the New Testament at least, the contrast is made between Jews (God's chosen people) and Gentiles (Non-Jews). Most Christians are in fact Gentiles at the same time, so the two groups are not exclusive. The same would apply to Jewish Christians. Of course it must not be forgotten that many Gentiles are also not Christian and so there would be a difference in terms of them accepting or not accepting Jesus Christ.

Why do Jews not believe Jesus is God?

No doubt the first-century Jews of Jerusalem and Galilee saw nothing to convince them that Jesus was other than a wandering preacher, like many others of his time. It is only the gentiles who could not have known about Jesus, other than what they were told, who began to believe in Jesus in significant numbers. Aside from that, in the Tanach, it is specified that HaShem (The Creator) is not man or son of man. The idea that a man is HaShem completely violates the teachings of Judaism.

The last time Peter is mentioned by name (outside of his own epistles) is in: Galatians 2:14 - But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before them all, "If you, being a Jew, live in the manner of Gentiles and not as the Jews, why do you compel Gentiles to live as Jews?"

What do Jews do in their free time?

Jews do exactly the same things that gentiles do. They read, write, go to the movies, play games and have fun with their family and friends. Perhaps the only notable exception is that many Jews are driven to success with post-graduate university education and professional careers. So, they might spend a little more time hitting the books and conducting research, or going to summer school in an effort to fast-track their college education. But, primarily, there is no difference between what Jews do with their free time and what gentiles do.

Why only in the New Testament the salvation was extended to the gentiles?

God has His times and seasons. Actually there were a few Gentiles that received salvation in the Old Testament. Rahab in the Book of Joshua was one and Ruth in the Book of Ruth was another. There were more, but this was the exception to the rule. During Jesus' time on earth more Gentiles are mentioned and then finally when the Jewish people rejected Jesus as the Messiah it was time for the Gentile to be accepted by God on a different basis, although Salvation has always come by faith in God, God created a time when mostly Gentiles could come to Him freely and in great numbers. Salvation to the Gentiles was mentioned in the Old Testament a number of times, but the timing was God's.
