RELG 210 Lecture Notes - Lecture 25: Second Temple Judaism, Ideal Type, Pharisees
Document Summary
Ideal type #1: of violent kingdom of god, with a religious support person. John the baptist: non-miracle working renewal type. Ideal type #3: honi & hanina, not all miracle stories fill this. There are more miracle stories about jesus than any other historical figure in the ancient world. Most traditions about jesus have miracle stories about him. Culturally and geographically different than jesus but literally similar. He would hold a ring to their nose, and one they got a waft of the ring, the demon would leave through the nostrils. Josephus does not approve nor disapprove of eleazar: the majority of the miracle stories associated with jesus. Jesus is categorized at being good at miracles. We do not know if he was a pharisee or not. Rituals that are not in my book. Are honi & hanina in the same ideal type as elazar & apollonius. H &h can ask god for favours: different than prayer.
