Bible Question: In the New Testament ... the Pharisees and Saducees are mentioned often. Do these sects stil exist? If so, where? Do they go by a different name? If not ... what happened to them and when? Thank you. |
Bible Answer: Hi Aileen, The Sadducees were mainly chief priests and priests and their adherents. They mainly died out with the destruction of the Temple. The Pharisees continued on in the Rabbis and their adherents, and to that extent survive today. Best wishes |
