| | Pharisees - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In general, the Pharisees emphasized a commitment to social justice, belief in the brotherhood of mankind, and a faith in the redemption of the Jewish nation and, ultimately, humanity. | | | The Pharisees believed that the idea that all of the children of Israel were to be like priests was expressed elsewhere in the Torah, for example, when the Law itself was transferred from the sphere of the priesthood to every man in Israel (Exodus 19: 29-24; Deuteronomy 6: 7, 11: 19; comp. | | | According to Josephus, Pharisees were further distinguished from the Sadducees in that Pharisees believed in the resurrection of the dead. |

| | Robert Farrar Capon - The Pharisee and the Tax Collector |
| | He has sent in the Pharisee who was one of the most respectable people in Judaism of his time and He has sent into the temple with him this tax collector who is a mafia-style enforcer, who is a bad apple. | | | The Pharisee is a very high class kind of dead duck, but they are both dead as far as being able to reconcile with God is concerned. | | | The point about all of this is that the reconciliation God has in mind for them is totally dependent on their death. |

| | SUNDAY OF THE PUBLICAN AND THE PHARISEE |
| | The fault of the Pharisee is that he has no desire to change his outlook; he is complacent, self-satisfied, and so he allows no place for God to act within him. | | | The Sunday of the Publican and the Pharisee is celebrated with the Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom, which is preceded by the Matins service. | | | The Pharisee goes to a very prominent place in the temple where other will see him and speaks of his accomplishments to God. |

| | After all, he was a representative of the intellectual stratum of society, he was in his own way religious, educated and wellread; to all appearance, he firmly preserved the religious beliefs and traditions, fulfilled the religious prescriptions, gave a tenth part of his possessions for the needs of his religion. | | | The Pharisee the fulfiller of the law, who observes all the religious rules comes and prays in thanksgiving: God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. | | | But the selfsatisfaction of the Pharisee was, as it were, the dominate feature of his spiritual state; it was so dominant that it completely obscured from him the genuine picture of what was taking place in his soul. |

| | The Pharisee and the Tax Collector |
| | The term “Pharisee” is presumed to have come from parûš, which in Hebrew means “Separated One.” “The Pharisees were a movement (not a denomination in the modern sense) within Judaism devoted to observing the Torah, including ritual purity, and piety toward God” (Hultgren 120-1). | | | The prayer of the Pharisee seems to imply that to feel right before God, the Pharisee had to know that there were others "beneath" him. | | | In other words, the Pharisee was praying as he was expected to pray, and communicating to God in the way that he had been taught. |

| | The Pharisee and the Tax Collector |
| | The term “Pharisee” is most likely derived from the Hebrew word meaning “separated one.” The Pharisees were a movement (not a denomination in the modern sense) within Judaism devoted to observing Torah, including ritual purity, and to piety toward God. | | | At the end of the day, the tax collector was judged righteous by God, while the Pharisee was not; thus Jesus was telling the people that justification comes “when one both needs and recognizes his need for it” (Johnson 274). | | | The tax collector left the temple justified, which meant in contemporary Judaism that he had obtained justice; been acquitted; or found justice, favor, grace from God; whereas the Pharisee’s prayer was not accepted by God (Jeremias 141). |

| | The Pharisees' spiritual descendants today are those people who make a public show of their holiness, but who don't hold God and all his people in their hearts. | | | The Pharisees were neither priests nor teachers - many of them were probably small businessmen or craftspeople. | | | Jesus told them repeatedly that they kept the letter of the law, but lost the spirit; they made a show of loving God with their public prayers, but they didn't have compassion for people. |

| | He is apparently the ideal they want to hold up to us all – the person who follows all the rules and who has no flexibility in his or her approach to life or to the lives of others. | | | The Windsor Report purports to be an honest appraisal of the state of the church, but it, like the prayers of the Pharisee, is so steeped in institutional self-righteousness that there's no room left for God. | | | But we cannot abdicate our responsibility to preach Christ's gospel of inclusive love and prophetic justice, simply for the sake of unity and ecclesiology. |

| | There Must be Fifty Ways to be a Pharisee |
| | As a budding Bible student, I thought the New Testament objected to Phariseeism because of the Pharisees' legalism—that is, their preoccupation with laws, rules, principles, and the minute, trivial details of religious observance. | | | The Pharisee of the New Testament may have been a distant and unfamiliar manifestation of universal Phariseeism, but universal Phariseeism has always been with us and always will be. | | | Through my years of Bible study, however, I have gradually come to understand the essential problem with Phariseeism: It was not the Pharisees' attention to the Law and Law-keeping. |

| | The Pharisees (possibly spiritual descendants of the Hasidim [Pious Ones], who were the exponents of Maccabean revolt) were strict adherents to the Law. | | | They did not believe in resurrection because they found no Old Testament enunciation of such a doctrine. | | | That the Pharisees did not react in this way was perhaps because of their belief in Providence: what happens is the will of God, and their free will is expressed in the context of trust and piety in conjunction with an eschatological hope of winning God's Kingdom through obedience to Law. |
