Hitler wanted to be worshipped by the German people, He regarded all other people as inferior, who needed to be destroyed.
Explanation:
Hitler was a neo pagan. He wanted to be worshipped by the German people. He had a vision of the German people ruling the world as in the mythical past, with him as a God like figure ruling the German people.
The Jewish people stubbornly refused to worship anything but their God of the Bible. Also Hitler blamed the Jews for Germany's defeat in World War I, as well as for his own injuries, during the war both physical and mental. The Jews who were disproportionally wealthy and different made them an ideal whipping boy and scape goat, uniting the German people behind Hitler.
By attacking the Jews, Hitler was able to gain political power. The Nazi's also confiscated the vast wealth of the Jewish people they persecuted enriching the Nazi party.
Christians that refused to "worship" Hitler like Dietrich Bonhoffer were also hated, but in prison, persecuted, and executed. Sadly many Christians adherents put loyalty to country about Biblical principles and followed Hitler.
People that Hitler regarded as inferior had to be killed to cleanse the earth to make room for the German master race. Poles, Russians, and slavic people were regarded as inferior. Even Germans with disabilities, reduced mental ability or homophobic tendencies were also targeted.
Hitler's dream of a Third Germanic empire inspired him to hate and kill anyone that stood in the way. Jews and Christians that refused to "worship" him as the Father, Messiah, God had to be destroyed. The earth had to be cleansed of all inferior peoples, like Poles, Russians, and Slaves.
