The Sadducees were a political Jewish group that sided with the ruling party, most notably Rome at the time of [[Jesus]]. They were unpopular wit the masses as a result, and their adversaries the [[Pharisees]] eventually became the Jewish leaders instead.

When Pompey captured [[Jerusalem]] in 63 B.C.), he executed many of the leading Sadducees, as did Herod the Idumean when he gained power in 37 B.C. But the Sadducees still retained their power throughout this period.

The Sadducees denied the resurrection, the immortality of the soul and the existence of angels (Matthew 22:23; Mark 12:18; Acts 23:8). They rejected the oral traditions followed by the [[Pharisees]].

The influence of the Sadducees disappeared when the Jewish people ceased to be a nation.
