Is JUDAISM the Law of Moses? - Part 13 - Ernest L Martin - January 1962

Ernest L Martin

This thirteenth installment reveals the truth about the Jews' laws which turned the Sabbath from a blessing into a burden - and how close some today approach this narrow-minded attitude toward the Sabbath. Synopsis: WE found in the last issue that the Pharisees were divided into two Schools, the Hillel and Shammai. The Hillel School emerged the victorious Pharisee group among the Jews. Within one to two hundred years after Christ, the Jews, as a whole, gravitated to complete devotion to the teachings of this School. There remained remnants of the older denominations which existed in Christ's day, but these remnants were only individuals scattered here and there. Only Pharisaic Judaism became the real teaching of the Jews, and to this day it is the basis of contemporary Judaism. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
