I don’t believe that Alexander Stevens was Jewish. Perhaps you are referring to Judah Benjamin, who served as Secretary of State and Attorney General for the Confederacy. He was Jewish.

You are correct, thanks for rectifying my mistake. He was also Secretary of War. Turns out Benjamin was twice offered to be nominated Justice of the US Supreme Court and turned them down. I didn’t know that.
