    copy of a letter to a finacial siteDear******Just to let you know NetBank, the first and largest internet bank went under on Friday. I have several accounts with them, all under the FDIC limit. This appears to be the first of possibly many banks to fail due to the sub-prime collapse.

    Pharisees,Sadducees

    Pharisees,Sadducees

    Part 4Pharisaic control of the local synagogues was more direct. Synagogues first came into being after the Jews returned from the Babylonian exile. They were not intended to replace the Temple, but were meant to be places of prayer and instruction in the Torah. At first, the teachers of the law...

    Pharisees,Sadducees

    Part 3. Any light that might be cast on the history of the Pharisees and their teachings in the pre-destruction period would be critically important. With new evidence from the Dead Sea Scrolls it is now possible to demonstrate that for much of the Hasmonean period Pharisaic views were indeed...

    Pharisees,Sadducees

    Part 2 Herod the Great's rule (37-4 BCE) brought changing fortunes for both sects. One of Herod's initial political goals was to reduce the power of the Pharisees, who held enormous sway with the people. As the Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels states, Herod's "first adversaries, the people...

    Pharisees,Sadducees

    Part 1The origin of these two sects cannot be definitively traced. The first specific mention we see of them is during the reign of John Hyrcanus (134-104 BCE). The scant evidence available suggests that they coalesced as distinctive groups soon after the Maccabean revolt. To fully grasp the...

    Pharisees,Sadducees

    The name Pharisee in its Hebrew form means separatists, or the separated ones. They were also known as chasidim, which means loyal to God, or loved of God - extremely ironic in view of the fact that by His time, they made themselves the most bitter, and deadly, opponents of Jesus Christ and His...

    Dear Abdallah

    (Biblical Tetragramaton;19476) Goodness, the Pharisees weren't all bad. Be on guard because of their fatal flaw; lack of true religion. Amos 5:21-23 tells us how God feels about that. However, the Pharisees were not bad. Gamaliel was a Pharisee {Acts 5:33-38}, as was Paul {Acts 22:3}. God spoke...
