How did Judaism in ancient Rome survive as a culture and a religion?

The prompt is:
– How did Judaism in ancient Rome survive as a culture and a
religion? This will require thought on your part not just regurgitating
what you read. If you and many other Americans were in captivity in
Russia, what would you to do maintain yourselves as a cohesive
culture?
– Judaism has a long history of contact with the Roman empire. At
times certain Roman leaders or occasionally the Senate favored the
Jews, at other times the Jews were persecuted. In general Jews in
Judea were not good about accepting Roman rule. Eventually, after
the Bar-Kochba revolt (132-135 CE), the emperor Hadrian destroyed
the temple and exiled most remaining Jews. It is these Jews, the
exiled Jews living in Rome, Ostia, and Portus on which you will
write a paper—not Jews in Judea.
