Vers. 2. Being grieved that they taught the people.

This grievance of the Priests, Sadduces, and Captain of the Temple, proceeded from several principles and causes. The Captains distaste was for fear the business should tend to innovation or tumult: the Sadduces, because they preached the Resurrection of the dead, which they denied, Chap. 23. 8. the Priests, because they being private men, went about to teach the people; and chiefly, because they preached the Resurrection through Jesus.

Through Iesus the Resurrection from the dead.

Though the whole Nation did so generally assert and hold the Resurrection of the dead (the Sadduces only excepted) that they made the deniers of this point, one of the three Parties that should never have part in the world to come: as they speak in the Tal∣mud, in the Tractate of Sanhed. Perek. Helek. These are they that have no portion in the world to come, he that saith, The Resurrection of the dead is not taught from the Law, and he that saith, That the Law is not from Heaven, and Epicures: Yet was this no less than heresie in their esteem; to teach that the Resurrection of the dead was either 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 proved and experienced in Jesus; or 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 by the power and efficacy of Jesus; that either Je∣sus was risen, or that he should be the Author of the Resurrection.
