Pharisees
The term refers to the "separate" or "separators", ie those that distinguish the biblical precepts of the law according to their major or minor. It is a spiritual power of Judaism cutting, open to the needs of the people, made up of lay people, often at odds with the current priest called the "Sadducees." The Gospels argue with them more to the hypocrisy and inconsistency of their behavior than for the content of their doctrine that was close enough to the teachings of Jesus emblems
