| May 2, 2024 at 10:10 | comment | added | Anne | @Jason_ Then those priests who heard it, who later became Christians, would have told the gospel writers. Perhaps some of them might have almost immediately declared faith in Christ. Remember, priests went daily into the Holy part. One answer says Jewish literature recorded “The Door of the Temple proper opened of its own accord, mysteriously.” Some priests would have been sound witnesses, and if two or more of them told the apostles, that would have confirmed the matter to them. | |
| May 2, 2024 at 9:59 | comment | added | Anne | @Jason_ Perhaps the priests in and around the Holy heard the noise of it being suddenly rent. Consider the massive thickness of the tapestry-like veil – that of a man’s wrist or arm – and the huge length of the cloth. A wafting silk veil would make no noise. Feathers falling make no noise. But all seamstresses know the sound of cloth being swiftly rent in one go! And with such a long piece, the sound would have lasted more than 2 seconds. I can suppose the noise of that immensely thick and long veil being suddenly rent to have been heard by everyone in and around the Holy part of the Temple | |

| Apr 26, 2024 at 4:06 | comment | added | Jason_♦ | This makes me wonder how the gospel writers knew that the veil tore at the moment of Jesus' death. That is, if it wasn't found till much later. +1 | |
| Apr 25, 2024 at 21:29 | comment | added | Daniel ben Noach | @vsz: There seems to be a strange presupposition among some Christians that every Jewish leader is a hardcore anti-missionary. The reality is that most Jews “reject” Jesus in the same sense that most Christians “reject” Muhammad or Joseph Smith. | |
| Apr 25, 2024 at 10:32 | comment | added | vsz | That the crucifixion was unimportant for the Jews at that time can be easily seen by the number of Messiah candidates running around in that time period. From the point of view of the Jews, Jesus was just one of the dozens of false messiahs, several of whom were executed if they gathered enough followers to be seen as troublesome (like John the Baptist for example) | |
| Apr 24, 2024 at 19:17 | comment | added | Dan Fefferman | @DanielbenNoach ... on the other hand the Sadducees were instrumental in convicting Jesus and turning him over to the Romans for execution . No Sadducee is named as a defender of Jesus, but several named Pharisees were friendly toward him, especially Nicodemus. I have to agree with Ian that Caiaphas in particular would not want to help the Christian cause. Later on, things seemed to change, as the Christians refused to join with other Jews in Jerusalem to overthrow Roman rule, putting them on the same side as the Sadducees. | |
| Apr 24, 2024 at 17:21 | comment | added | Daniel ben Noach | @IanRingrose: I doubt it. Recall that (1) at the time, Christianity was still a relatively small "cult", and (2) the priesthood was controlled by the Sadducees, who played a relatively tiny role in the New Testament compared to the Pharisees. | |
| Apr 24, 2024 at 11:46 | comment | added | Ian Ringrose | The high priest would have had a strong incentive to advoid saying/writing anything that helped Christianity. | |
