I think they represent irish ("leprechauns").

The closest to jews would be dwarves, Hobbits are supposed to be classical peasant Europeans, with simple lives.

Even then, dwarves feature things that jews do not have.

While you could probably make some convincing comparisons pulling from the books I personally don't see the writing that way.

classically the dwarves were the jews (short and hairy and hoarding all the gold). The elves (enlightened and civilized) are white folk and the orcs (violent, mindless thugs) are black.
