Original Note:
Whether Hadrian renamed the region to Syria Palaestina to "spite the Jews" has little bearing on Jewish oppression. The renaming happened directly after the Romans suppressed the Bar Kokhba revolt, killed hundreds of thousands of Jews, and their expulsion from Jerusalem. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_Kokhba_revolt#Sources
