  • The Pharisees and Sadducees were the two main parties that made up the Jewish ruling body called the Sanhedrin at the time of Jesus. The Sadducees held a majority and rejected supernatural stuff, while the Pharisees were more into the supernatural side of things and also rules; lots of rules.

    There's more to the story than that...
    The Sadducees began way back in the 400's. They were the descendants of the High Priest Zadok, of King David's time. They thought they ought to be the priests appointed by the Persians to rule Judea. So they were. But as the leaders of Judea, they were the ones who developed the most wealth and interactions with Greek culture. They became so secular that they saw all the Jewish rituals as only pertaining to the Temple. In other words, they thought all God asked was for them to do the "church" thing one day a week, and they could live as they wished the other 6 days.
    The Pharisee movement began about 100 years after the Sadducees began. The word "Pharisee" means "separated one."
    You see, among the Levites, only the sons of Aaron were to be priests. But now, there was an elite strain of priests in charge.
    So there were three classes of religious people... The sons of Zadok (Sadducees) 2. the rest of the priests, and 3. the rest of the Levites.
    The Pharisee movement was a reaction against the worldliness of the Sadducees.
    The movement began among the non-priests of the Levites, who were scribes and teachers of the Law in the synagogues.
    Thus, by the first century, the Pharisees (who believed they had oral traditions passed down from the time of Moses!) had become quite cold in heart, seeking for brownie points only by outward ritual.
    It was very much like the holiness movement which swept through the Eastern USA in the late 1800's, as a Wesleyan reaction against the worldliness of the very denominations which traced their heritage directly from the core of the European Reformation.
    History repeats itself.
    Strangely, Sadduceeism died out completely after there was no place for them, when Titus destroyed the Temple in 70 AD.
    So, Phariseeism was left as the only guiding movement among the Jews, during the disperson.
    Which is why Modern Judaism is actually Phariseeism in modern clothes.
    Which leads us to the question... is Pentecostalism (rooted in the Holiness movement of 130 years ago) as it grows by leaps and bounds worldwide, taking over christianity?

    Contemporary normative Judaism which is rabbinical, especially Orthodox and Conservative, is a direct descendant of the Pharisees. The Sadducees have no heirs in the Jewish world
    There were other Jewish parties such as the Essenes, the Zealots, and the Hellenists. The Pharisees are the creators of the Talmud.

      They might, in the form of Karaite Judaism, depending upon how you slice and dice what the Karaites of today believe. There's only about 100,000 of them world-wide these days, but at one time they made a credible run at becoming the major form of Judaism. Among other things, they flat out reject the Talmud.

    Excellent, thank you. The interesting part is that although both sides have the appearance of godliness, the deny the power, so both are wicked. As much as our values seem to align, those who refuse to submit to Jesus are vipers. Lord I pray that Your people come out from among all systems and align to the Kingdom where Jesus is glorified. Show us how. You are faithful to lead, protect, and provide. Amen.

    Thanks for your informative video as always Matt. I'm quite troubled with which party to support. It means like all parties will never truly reflect what Jesus wants for us..

    Excellent video. In the end, no political party is following Jesus, or probably ever will. We have this "fun" choice between a party that thinks their freedoms are more important than Jesus' primary mission of helping the least of us, and is okay with vengefully executing those who go astray, and a party that thinks personal freedom means being able to end lives for convenience, supported by a lot of people who don't value Jesus' sacrifice.
    Pro-life democrats shouldn't be rare, and among the populous are less rare than people think, but yet anyone who shares those kinds of views is rarely allowed to be an actual representative in an election. It's frustrating to say the least.
    Although I'm very not-Catholic, for the most part I think the current Pope has the right idea. He's maintains views that annoy every politician in one way or another, but yet his personal integrity is almost beyond reproach, making it harder to criticize him for the parts of Christianity you don't like.

      New Pope is worst Pope. He has said some pretty anti-Christian things, from what I hear. Can't trust Catholics. They're slimey.

      I completely agree! I'm so appalled that a lot of Christians in the US are going the anti-helping-the-poor/sick direction, that makes me so sad :/ Jesus was pretty clear on all these things in the bible and I'm shocked that a lot of Christians think the more Christian stance is to be politically conservative. But also, I can't be politically liberal because of the liberal stance on abortions. It's so refreshing to see other Christians who apply Jesus' actual teachings to political ideology rather than picking one of the very flawed sides.

      Well my friend, you seem to be mired in a false binary. Our two party system has devolved into justice Democrats and neoconservative Republicans; or as I like to call it, War Jews and Sodomite Jews

    Pharisees-Sadducees

    Catholic-Protestant
    Conservative-Liberal
    God loves when people are polarized, doesn't He? :P

      Oddly enough, Jesus was very harsh with scribes, pharisees and sadducees, but he was much more comprehensive with publicans and prostitutes.

      Except, by the standards of their own time and place, the Sadducees were actually the conservatives and the Pharisees the liberals. The Herodians would then go further to the Right of the former and the Zealots likewise to the Left of the latter.
