The pharisees believed the messiah had not come.
The singular possessive form of "pharisee" is "pharisee's," and the plural form is "pharisees'."
The Pharisees (religious leaders of the Jews at the time) did not like Jesus for many reasons:They thought that what he was saying was blasphemousThey were scared that he would start a rebellion against the Romans (If the Jewish people rebelled, the Romans would blame the Pharisees for the uprising and kill them)
Yes. The "Pharisees" is a term which actually refers to the Torah-Sages.
Jesus appears to have felt considerable kinship with the Pharisees. He spent long hours in synagogues that were dominated by Pharisees, ate meals with Pharisees, and visited Pharisees in their homes. His arguments with Pharisees make up a significant part of the Gospels. The record of Jesus' arguments with the Pharisees in the Gospels and the record of arguments among the Pharisees in the Talmud suggest that Jesus's style of argument, vehemence and occasional name calling (hypocrites!) were typical Phariseeic behavior. It is quite likely that many Pharisees during Jesus' lifetime considered him to be a Pharisee. Most of what Jesus taught in the Gospels is in accordance with the teachings of the school of Rabbi Hillel -- the more humanist and less legalist school of Phariseeic thought.
Only the Pharisees survived and became today's Jews.
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Pharisees told Jesus that they were not illegimate, that they had Abraham for their father.
No.
The Pharisees believed in the letter of the law. Jesus believed in the spirit of the law.
The principal Jewish sects at the start of the first century CE were the Sadducees and the Pharisees. While the Saddducees resisted foreign influence and sought to protect the influence of the wealthy in Jewish society, the Pharisees were much more amenable to foreign influences. While not exactly allied to the Romans, the Pharisees were more willing to coexist with the Roman administrators than were their fellow Jews.
There is no mention of any prohibition on Pharisees having children. In fact, according to the teachings of the Tanach (Jewish Bible), men are incomplete if they remain unmarried and without children. As Torah observant Jews, the Pharisees most definitely would have had children. The proof of this is that the Pharisees are the ancestors of modern Judaism.
The gospels record that Jesus hung out with Pharisees, studied with Pharisees, ate with Pharisees and argued with Pharisees. If you look at what we know about the Pharisees from the Mishnah, which is largely a record of the opinions of the Pharisees, we know that they denounced each other on many occasions as a routine part of their rhetorical style. Jesus fits right in, so closely that most Jews who have studied the Gospels conclude that Jesus was probably a Pharisee and either a member of the school of Hillel or allied to that school of thought. His denunciations sound very much like typical denunciations from the school of Hillel aimed at the school of Shamai.
