References to the "perfidious Jews" were removed by Pope John XXIII but there remained some language that modern scholars felt was unhelpful in the "Jewish-Christian dialogue." So the language was further changed. This is why the motu proprio for the wider celebration of the TLM specifically says the old prayers shall not be said during the Easter triduum.
I have read the prayers of all 3 versions and there are 3 different mindsets at work in them but they all say the same thing essentially still. The "perfidious Jews" one was very harsh, the John XXIII version less so, the new prayers pussy-foot or tap-dance further around the issue of salvation for non-Catholics or even non-Christians. All the prayers are in accordance with the Catechism, they just say things differently. If you read the Catechism on baptism of desire, these prayers are in accordance with that.
You can find the content of the prayers with a Google search for something like "Easter triduum prayers" or something.
