Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex relationship between Jesus and the Pharisees, exploring the theological and historical landscape of 1st-century Palestine. It examines the Pharisees' role as the dominant religious authority of the time, shaping Jewish life and thought through their interpretation of the Torah and their emphasis on oral tradition. The author investigates the historical context of the Pharisees, tracing their origins back to the Hasidim of the Maccabean period and their resistance to Hellenistic influences. The book explores the Pharisees' rise to prominence, their clashes with the Sadducees and other Jewish sects, and their influence on the religious and political climate of Jesus' era. This book delves into the theological doctrines and practices of the Pharisees, including their beliefs in the afterlife, resurrection, angels, and demons. It also examines the various types of Pharisees, as depicted in the Talmud, highlighting the hypocrisy and legalistic formalism that Jesus criticized. By analyzing the Pharisees' outlook on doctrine and life, this book sheds light on the historical and theological background of Jesus' ministry and the challenges he faced in spreading his message. Understanding the Pharisees' perspective provides crucial insights into the origins of Christianity and the context in which Jesus' teachings emerged, offering a deeper appreciation of the historical and theological significance of this pivotal period.
