Quote #4
"I reflected—clearly reflected for the first time, that in bending my neck to the yoke I was willing to wear, I bent the unwilling necks of the whole Jewish people." (18.9.15)
Mr. Riah eventually realizes that in making himself Mr. Fledgeby's errand-boy, he's also giving a bad name to Jewish people everywhere. Mr. Fledgeby orders him to act like a Jewish stereotype, and in doing so, Riah is letting down his entire religion and not just himself.
Quote #5
"But doing it as a Jew, I could not choose but compromise the Jews of all conditions and all countries." (18.9.15)
Again, Mr. Riah sadly admits that he has sold out his entire religion by allowing Mr. Fledgeby to use him as a moneylending puppet.
Quote #6
"He has got a bad name as an old Jew, and he is paid for the use of it, and I'll have my money's worth of him." (14.13.18)
Mr. Fledgeby doesn't end up using Mr. Riah by accident. He knows exactly what he's doing when he chooses an old Jewish man as the face of his moneylending operation. He knows that people will be willing to believe that a Jewish man is greedy, so he uses this prejudice to his own financial advantage.
