The Pharisee The Pharisees were a prominent religious group in first-century Judaism known for their strict adherence to the Law of Moses and the oral traditions. The Greek word for Pharisee, "Pharisaios," is derived from a Hebrew root meaning "separated." This separation was both physical and spiritual, as they sought to maintain purity by distancing themselves from anything considered unclean. Historically, the Pharisees were influential in the synagogues and often clashed with Jesus over interpretations of the law and issues of the heart. In this context, the Pharisee represents a self-righteous attitude, relying on external observance rather than internal transformation. stood by himself prayed God, I thank You that I am not like other men swindlers, evildoers, adulterers or even like this tax collector God, I thank thee . . .--We cannot say that the formula, as a formula, was wrong.

I rise early like them, but it is to study the Law, not for futile ends. I take trouble as they do, but I shall be rewarded, and they will not. We run alike, but I for the future life, while they will only arrive at the pit of destruction" (from the treatise 'Berachath').Parallel Commentaries ...
