'''{{Style S-Small capitals|Sadducees}}'''. A sect, the followers of one Zadok, a disciple of Anti‐gonus Saccho. They are accused of having denied the immortality of the (personal) soul and that of the resurrection of the (physical and personal) body. Even so do the Theosophists; though they deny neither the immortality of the Ego nor the resurrection of all its numerous and successive lives, which survive ''in the '' ''memory of the Ego''. But together with the Sadducees — a sect of learned philosophers who were to all the other Jews that which the polished and learned Gnostics were to the rest of the Greeks during the early centuries of our era — we certainly deny the immortality of the ''animal'' soul and the resurrection of the physical body. The Sadducees were the scientists and the learned men of Jerusalem, and held the highest offices, such as of high priests and judges, while the Pharisees were almost from first to last the Pecksniffs of Judæa. | '''{{Style S-Small capitals|Sadducees}}'''.
