Biblical Nuggets: The Sanhedrin

By Satya Maharzan · September 24, 2014 · General

The Jewish high court of justice consisted of 71 men and was led by the high priest. The council could decide almost any fate of its people – except the death penalty, which was decided by the Romans. The court was located within the Chamber of Hewn Stone inside Herod’s Temple.
