Now, let's get into the Word Of God

In today’s Bible Study, we are going to study about the:

Origins of the Cancel Culture and it’s first Victim ?

Cancel Culture Yesterday and Today

What does it mean to cancel someone? To cancel someone is to stop supporting them or their work. This means no longer reading what they write, listening to or watching what they create, or enjoying what they produce. ( Merriam Webster Dictionary )

The Original Cancel Culture

The bible records two groups, that foster the beliefs and the social morey's of today’s cancel culture:

1. The Pharisees:

In Jesus’ day, the Pharisees were the most respected and influential group in Judaism.

Having originated about 135 B.C.,they were a committed fellowship of men, determined to follow in exact detail everything required in the Mosaic Law.

“Pharisees ” means

Pharisees : a religious party or school among the Jews at the time of Christ, so called from perishin , the Aramaic form of the Hebrew word perushim , "separated."

The chief sects among the Jews were the Pharisees, the Sadducees and the Essenes, who may be described respectively as the Formalists, the Freethinkers and the Puritans.

A knowledge of the opinions and practices of the Pharisees at the time of Christ is of great importance for entering deeply into the genius of the Christian religion. A cursory perusal of the Gospels is sufficient to show that Christ's teaching was in some respects thoroughly antagonistic to theirs.

He denounced them in the bitterest language; see (Matthew 15:7,8; 23:5,13,14,15,23; Mark 7:6; Luke 11:42-44) and compare (Mark 7:1-5; 11:29; 12:19,20; Luke 6:28,37-42)

To understand the Pharisees is by contrast an aid toward understanding the spirit of uncorrupted Christianity.

1. The fundamental principle all of the of the Pharisees, common to them with all orthodox modern Jews, is that by the side of the written law regarded as a summary of the principles and general laws of the Hebrew people there was on oral law to complete and to explain the written law, given to Moses on Mount Sinai and transmitted by him by word of mouth.

The first portion of the Talmud, called the Mishna or "second law," contains this oral law. It is a digest of the Jewish traditions and a compendium of the whole ritual law, and it came at length to be esteemed far above the sacred text.

1. While it was the aim of Jesus to call men to the law of God itself as the supreme guide of life, the Pharisees, upon the Pretense of maintaining it intact, multiplied minute precepts and distinctions to such an extent that the whole life of the Israelite was hemmed in and burdened on every side by instructions so numerous and trifling that the law was almost if not wholly lost sight of.

These "traditions" as they were called, had long been gradually accumulating.

Of the trifling character of these regulations innumerable instances are to be found in the Mishna.
