Historians debate whether or not the Roman government distinguished between Christians and Jews prior to Nerva's modification of the Fiscus Judaicus in 96. From then on, practicing Jews paid the tax, Christians did not. The contemporary concept simply refers to individuals of certain Jewish ancestry or heritage, who are adherents of some form of Christianity, which may or may not incorporate some Jewish customs. This includes converts from Judaism to Christianity and ethnic Jews who for one reason or another had not been raised within Judaism.
