“Persecution of the Christians”, Young Folks’ History of Rome (1878).
Prior to Nero’s accusation of arson and subsequent anti-Christian actions in 64, all animosity was apparently limited to intramural Jewish hostility. In the New Testament (Acts 18:2-3), a Jew named Aquila is introduced who, with his wife Priscilla, had recently come from Italy because emperor Claudius “had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome”. It is generally agreed that from Nero’s reign until Decius‘s widespread measures in 250, Christian persecution was isolated and localized.[21]:105–152 Although it is often claimed that Christians were persecuted for their refusal to worship the emperor, general dislike for Christians likely arose from their refusal to worship the gods or take part in the sacrifice, which was expected of those living in the Roman Empire.[21]:105–152 Although the Jews also refused to partake in these actions, they were tolerated because they followed their own Jewish ceremonial law, and their religion was legitimized by its ancestral nature.[40]:130 On the other hand, they believed Christians, who were thought to take part in strange rituals and nocturnal rites, cultivated a dangerous and superstitious sect.[40]:125
During this period, anti-Christian activities were accusatory and not inquisitive.[21]:105–152 Governors played a larger role in the actions than did Emperors, but Christians were not sought out by governors, and instead were accused and prosecuted through a process termed cognitio extra ordinem. No reliable, extant description of a Christian trial exists, but evidence shows that trials and punishments varied greatly, and sentences ranged from an acquittal to death.[4]

There are no references to the persecution of Christians by the Roman state prior to Nero, who according to Tacitus and later Christian tradition, blamed Christians for the Great Fire of Rome in 64,[21]:105–152 which destroyed portions of the city and economically devastated the Roman population. In the Annals of Tacitus, we read:
