单词 | sadducee |
释义 | Sadduceen.adj. A. n. 1. A member of a religious party within Judaism between the 2nd cent. b.c. and New Testament times, which, in opposition to the Pharisees, denied the resurrection of the dead, the immortality of the soul, the existence of angels, and the authority of the Mosaic oral tradition, emphasizing the primacy of the written Law.Knowledge of the Sadducees is largely based on information from the New Testament, Josephus, and Rabbinic texts; no writings have survived from the group itself, making it difficult to know how accurately they are portrayed. In origin the Sadducees seem to have been not so much a theological or philosophical sect or school, as a political party composed of the nobility, i.e. those belonging or connected to the high-priestly family.
