1 SoumWESTERNJOURNAL OF THEOLOGY i }. t The Sadducean Pesecution of the Chistians in Rome and Jeusalem, A.D. 58 to 65 1 By the time of Paul's aival in Jeusalem in A.D. 57 o 58,2 James, the bothe of Jesus, was at the head of a congegation of many thousands, all zealous fo the Law (Acts 21:20). James was concened that Paul's eputation that he had taught Jews in the diaspoa to ignoe the Law, to give up cicumcising thei sons, and geneally to adopt a Geek way of life would cause difficulties. He asked him to undetake the suppot of cetain men unde Nazaite vows. Paul ageed, but James' feas wee ealized anyway when cetain Jews fom Asia (pehaps fom Ephesusp ecognized Paul and accused him of teaching against the Jews, thei law, and thei temple, and finally of taking Geeks into the inne couts of the temple, beyond! the waning signs fobidding this. A iot ensued and Paul was saved fom the mob by the commande of the cohot, and bought the next day befoe the Sanhedin. Thee he had his fist confontation with the high piest, whom Paul called a whitewashed wall. This was Ananias, son of Nededaeus, high piest fom ' '. " j l ~, c. 48 to c The Sanhedin was stymied by a debate between the Phaisees and the Sadducees ove the question of the esuection of the dead, one of the cental diffeences between the two sects. Befoe the heaing could continue, the commande of the cohot emoved Paul to Caesaea because of a epot of an assassination plot. In Caesaea, Paul was bought to tial befoe Felix, the bothe of Pallas, one of the most poweful feedmen in Rome in the eign of Claudius. Pallas was still alive, and pehaps still in- I The autho wishes to thank Pofesso E.

I fluential,5 Felix was maied to Dusilla, younge siste of Agippa II and Benice, and the only Heodian With any powe in Judea, except fo Agippa's contol of the Temple pecinct. The Sanhedin hied a heto named Tetullus to handle the posecution. The high piest and cetain eldes made the tip to Caesaea to indicate the impotance they attached to the matte. Despite this, Felix efused to be pushed into a decision, Felix adjouned the heaing to obtain futhe evidence, pehaps anticipating a bibe to elease Paul (Acts 24:25), Thee may have been othe easons. Wee thee enough Chistians in Caesaea that a iot seemed likely if he acceded to the posecutoial demands? We may also wonde if pehaps Felix was intigued by the possibility of a Judaism without the sepaatism inheent in the Law. 6 Paul's case emained in suspense fo two yeas while he "\\-'as kept in pison, A new pocuato, Festus, was appointed, who likewise efused to conclude the matte. He sent Paul to Rome. Wbethe this was in the natue of a fomal appeal o of a tansfe of juisdiction cannot be detemined on the evidence available. 7 John Ensminge, LL.M, is an attoney and wite living in New Yok City. He is the edito of the jounal Taxation fo Law yes. His eseach inteests include society and eligion in the f!ist centuy. He is cu ently woking on a histoical novel on the Chistians in Rome duing the eign of Neo. It seems likely that despite Paul's appeal, Festus could have dealt with the matte had he wished. Whateve factos deteed Felix fom making a decision still obtained fo Festus. In Rome, Paul emained unde house aest fo two yeas and ou pincipal souce leaves us (Acts 28:30-31), The length of the impisonment is not so exteme if Josephus is coect in descibing his own visit to Rome when he was twenty-six, theefoe in 63 o 64, to obtain the elease of piests who wee aested by Felix, which would mean pio to the pocuato's depatue fom office in 60,8 An angel 'E.

2 SOL"THWESTERNJOURNAL OF THEOIOGY had announced to Paul on the jouney to Rome that he would appea befoe the empeo, yet we have no ecod of a poceeding (Acts 27:24). Cetainly the Jews would have pessed the matte had they been given the oppotunity. Did they have the oppotunity? We must conside Ishmael, high piest fom pehaps 59 to He aived in Rome pobably 61 o 62, 10 pehaps emaining thee as late as 65 o even late, along with Helcias, a teasuy guad o temple captain, and ten fist men Oosephus, Antiquities ). This goup eceived the favo of Poppaea, eithe afte he maiage to Neo (A.D. 62), o close enough to it that she had the effective powe of an impeial wife. The delegation had been sent by Festus because of a dispute with Agippa concening the heightening of the wall aound the inne couts of the temple, which the piests had undetaken in ode to block Agippa's view of the inne cout, whee the sacifices took place. Agippa had built onto the Hasmonean Palace, which adjoined the temple to the west, so as to give himself this view, pesumably fo entetainment. Could the delegation of twelve have pusued the posecution of Paul in Rome? The fist poblem is chonological. It is doubtful Poppaea's powe could have been geat enough to outweigh that of Agippina's befoe he assassination in 59. In fact, it has been suggested that Poppaea's favoing of the delegation may have esulted fom esentment of Agippina's fiendship with the Heodian family. Theefoe, those dating Paul's impisonment in the mid- to late-50s must pesumably eject any Roman connection between Paul and IshmaeL The next poblem is pocedual. Could a delegation aiving fom Jeusalem have aised a seconday issue, the unesolved status of Paul's case? Since the embassy was ganted by Festus fo the piests to pesent thei agument against Agippa's viewing of the sacifices, it would seem that the extaneous issue of Paul's posecution could only be aised by expess pemission of the empeo. 11 Howeve, the success of the mission on its cental issue would likely have been eflected in ganting a equest of much less political concen to Neo. Cetainly, if the conviction of Paul still matteed to the piestly hieachy, the pesence of such distinguished witnesses was impotant in the effective posecution of the case. Theefoe, it seems pobable that the posecution of Paul could have been esumed in Rome, with the suppot and testimony of the Jewish delegation, in 61 o Clem. 5.2 tells us only that Paul was pusued because of zeal and jealousy and that he gave his testimony befoe the ules (matuesas epi ton 'Haenchen, 665 n.2, to the effect that Ishmael was nominated by Agippa in the pocuatoship of Felix, which Haenchen teminates in 55. Smallwood, "High Piests and Politics," 32. IOSmallwood, Jews Unde the Roman Rule, 279 n.80. lif. Milla, Empeo in Roman Wold, 169. egoumenon).12 We cannot, of couse, go much futhe in ou speculation. IfHaenchen is coect in supposing that Paul was convicted and executed, 13 pehaps something is added to his agument if one supposes that such an effective delegation pessed fo Paul's conviction. This model of killing Paul as a matte of political appeasement of the Jews - cannot be used if the death of Paul is agued to occu much late. Afte the outbeak of the evolt in 66, any posecution would have had to be fo puely Roman consideations. The dispute emains as to what happened as a esult of the tial. The apocyphal acts ae lagely fictional, but pehaps coect in suggesting that Paul was beheaded. 14 The embassy to Neo of twelve leading membes of the Jeusalem hieachy, pehaps most if not all of them piests, has occasioned supisingly little comment in modem scholaship. At a time when Paul and pehaps Pete wee in contact with the Jewish communities thee, it could have had a Significant effect on the ealy debates at the synagogues concening the Chistian message. Paul's lette to Rome pesupposes divisions in the eceiving commllllity as to the impotance of continuing adheence to the Law. It may explain why ealy suppot and inteest of the Roman Jews (Acts 28:17-22) evapoated by the time of tial. IS The delegation is not likely to have confined itself to political appeaances befoe the empeo and attendance on the impeial consot. The piests must have also become a focus of attention fo Roman Jews. A passage of Plutach may be impotant in this connection: When (the Jews) celebate thei so-called Fast, at the height of the vintage, they set out tables of all sots offuit unde tents and huts plaited fo the most pat of vines and ivy. They call the fist of the two days Tabenacles. A few days late they celebate anothe festi\'al...in which they ente the temple each caying a thysus.., (T)hey use little tumpets.... Othes of them advance playing haps: these playes ae called in thei language Levites...

Noting the absence of efeence to sacifice, Lightstone also aises the intiguing possibility that it could also be an account of synagogue pactice. He notes Paul's encounte with the jewish exocists at Ephesus, sons of the achieeus Sceva. This may suggest a kind of synagogue piesthood in Asia, 18 o may only indicate that the exocists tavelled fom judea. An additional possibility may be that the account is that of a delegation of piests, pehaps even the one we ae discussing. 19 Pehaps the piests celebated the Feast of Tabenacles in Rome, taking those aspects of the litugy which did not equie the temple. The size of the delegation may also be significant. Is it possible the Sadducean code may have specified cetain pocedues which equied the pesence of ten piests, just as the Mishnah equies the pesence of ten fo paye (M.Meg. 4.3)?2 Poppaea etained the high piest and the teasuy guad as hostages afte the mission accomplished its pupose, pehaps to dete any misuse of the pivilege of pivacy.21 Though we may doubt the depth and chaacte of Poppaea's theosebia (Antiquities ), we may also suspect she found thei pactices appealing enough to etain them fo thei continued decoation. Some difficulty with the length of thei etention must be seen in josephus, failue to mention them in connection with his own visit to Rome in 64, whee he had gone to obtain the elease of cetain piests Q. Conv. 4:671c. Loeb tanslation (pp ), deleting the discussion wheeby the Jewish litugy is "poven" to be elated to Dionysus.

See the maginal notes of the Loeb tanslation of Josephus, Vita 86, p. 7. Schue, 1:466 na2 gives the date as 63/64, See Lake, The Beginning., V:321. Rajak is likely coect in ejecting the suggestion that josephus was tying to obtain the elease of Ishmael and Helcias. josephus indicates that he was intoduced to Poppaea though a jewish acto ofwhom Neo was fond, named AlituuS. 23 Pehaps josephus makes no mention of the piests because they could not, in this instance, be influential. It is even possible that the aested piests wee among thei opponents. It may not be accidental that at Antiquities , immediately afte mentioning the appointment of Ishmael as high piest, josephus descibes the incease in enmity between the high piests and the leades of the populace. Ishmael, the high piest, pobably died in Cyene about 73 (Bj 6.114), Had Ishmael etuned to judea befoe the outbeak of the evolt, afte Poppaea's death in 65, he might have been expected to have been settled in one of the pacified aeas of Galilee. A late tadition holds that Titus settled 30,000 jews in Punic teitoy afte the evolt. 24 Pehaps Ishmael did not leave Rome until 66 o 67, afte the evolt had boken out. If Ishmael and Helcias emained in Rome though 65, they would have been at cout when Poppaea boe a daughte and then lost he. Moeove, they would have been at cout when the fie boke out, fo which the Chistians wee blamed. Poppaea has been implicated in this pesecution. 25 Ifthis connection is made, it is but a small step to suggest that the membes of the jewish delegation, who may be supposed to have discussed divegent foms of judaism with the empess, could have been esponsible fo the idea. 26 The difficulty of explaining the eason the Chistians wee blamed fo the fie has long been ecognized. 27 We must account fo the fact that duing the eign of Neo thee seems to have been sufficient infomation about the Chistians to distinguish them fom jews, wheeas thity yeas late, unde Domitian, no such distinction was made. 28 The numbe of Chistians must have been consideably geate by the time of Domitian. The influence of the jeusalem piests on Poppaea is the most cedible explanation.

The pesecution happened in the administative hiatus between the death of Festus and the aival of Albinus. The pepetato is Ananus, a piest josephus paises fo his conduct in the wa.31 Yet hee, josephus seems to feel that the action was extaodinay and that the eplacement of Ananus was incumbent upon Agippa. 32 Evidently, thee was sufficient opposition to Ananus that his continued authoity could be a theat to the peace. That the Phaisees wee involved in this must mean that the majoity of the nation had tuned against Ananus. 33 Nevetheless, josephus may have also seen the emoval of Ananus fom the high piesthood as one of the factos that hastened the descent into evolution. 34 The event took place in 62 and was connected even in antiquity to Pau]35 (Eusebius , citing Hegessipus). That is, it may have happened because james had not denounced Paul, o pehaps because he had accepted an offeing fom the Pauline congegations, with this being seen as a deogation of the temple tax. 36 In the pseudo-clementine Recognitions, c. 70, Paul is depicted as Simon Magus, whose mission is given by the opponents of james as poof of the flawed natue of the Chistian message. 37 S. G. F. Bandon 38 speculated that james may have become a champion of the lesse piests in thei disputes with the chief piests, and that this is eflected in the late depictions of james as a piest o high piest. One of the pincipal exponents ofthe suppession of the lesse piests was Ishmael, though he was to have been in Rome at the time of the pesecution 29F. F.

A mee list of conflicts which concened them is impessive. (1) Phaisaic opposition to the Sadducean penal code. 4! (2) Fiction between factions of high piests. Antiquities (3) Conflicts with odinay piests. Tosefta Menahot xiii, 21; B, T. Pesahim 57a. (4) Conflict between piests and Levites. Antiquities (5) Geneal conflict between ich and poo. Antiquities IneVitably, thee was continuing fiction with Geeks, Romans, and Samaitans. The agument pesented hee does not enhance the theoy that the Chistians took pat in the evolt of 66 to 70. Thee is at least one tadition that suggests that afte the death of james, the jeusalem community divided into factions in any case (Eusebius ). No can the Pella tadition establish a unitay Chistian esponse to the evolt,43 even ifthe tadition is accepted. The fevo of evolt undoubtedly swept many along in spite of thei bette judgment. Conclusions The Sadducean position was one of esistance to social and eligious change, to popula movements, and geneally to the foces eoding thei authoity. They could not stop the tend, but they could single out cetain stands within thei opposition. The Chistians wee attacked in this way. 44 While the infomation is lacking to do moe than hypothesize concening the continued posecution of Paul in Rome, it seems likelv that the high piests -would have caied thei pol~mical stance towad Chistians to Rome. Thee they would have influenced the jewish community, as well as Poppaea. The Chistians had emained close to the synagogue in Rome and wee vulneable to the attack.
