Episode 29: Passion Week Through Jewish Eyes: The Testing: Pharisees And Herodians

Written By Matt Davis
 

We help Christians make sense of their roots so they can help the Jewish people make sense of Jesus.

On this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast:

Entering Jerusalem as He did isn’t the end of the story. Unfortunately, in its modern-day observance of Passion Week, it jumps from there right to the crucifixion. Palm Sunday → Good Friday.  That is the result of the early church deciding not to follow the Jewish calendar. That decision was made at the Council of Nicea in 325 AD (It was a symptom of a deeper problem).  What actually happened after the Triumphal Entry is that He went back and forth from Bethany to Jerusalem every day, and entered into dialogue (confrontation-attack) with four different groups:

  1. The Priests and the elders

  2. The Pharisees and the Herodians

  3. The Sadducees

  4. The Pharisees (take one more shot)

The Pharisees and the Herodians (Matthew 22:15-22)

A second confrontation was from the Pharisees and the Herodians…

This confrontation was a question of POLITICS.
