Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book delves into the historical and legal intricacies surrounding the trial of Jesus Christ, focusing on the Sanhedrim, the Jewish council responsible for his condemnation. It meticulously examines the composition of the Sanhedrim, its structure divided into chambers of priests, scribes, and elders, and the shift in its authority under Roman rule. The author meticulously reconstructs the profiles of over half the Sanhedrim members, drawing from historical sources like the Gospels, writings of Josephus, and the Talmud. These profiles reveal a complex picture of power struggles, political maneuvering, and moral ambiguity within the council. The book unveils the motivations and biases that influenced the Sanhedrim's judgment of Christ, placing their actions within the context of Roman occupation and Jewish expectations of the Messiah. The book explores the Sanhedrim's controversial decision to relinquish its power over life and death just 23 years before the trial. It analyzes the religious and political implications of this decision and argues that the Sanhedrim's subsequent condemnation of Christ was a violation of Roman law and a desperate attempt to maintain their waning authority. The author's insights shed light on the historical and theological significance of the trial, offering a nuanced understanding of the events that shaped the course of history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. …
