Star trek has quite a few references to Jewish culture. The Ferengi are the most obvious standouts but for me the Founders (changlings) were always the closest proximity to how Jews see themselves.

IIRC the Ferengi were supposed to be a parody of the worst aspects of capitalism, not the Jews. You're not the first to make the comparison though.
