They didn't make any political decisions. They just got the gains from the decisions made.

The Old Testament is filled with religious people trying to play the politics game and dying from it

they did xD

Look at 1st and 2nd kings

look at the gospel, jesus critisizes them for it, ever read the gospel?

Dude

I know the Bible

ik im just kidding

Jesus criticizes them for being false prophets

my bad

oh btw if u guys know the bible i am certain that you know the external writer "josephus" who brought us historical evidence of jesus's wonders and his death etc. he himself even wrote about the pharasees being politicians, they would solve a crisis together in their own "council" in wich they were there to decide what would happen, how the laws may change and many other things wich is literally a definition of being a politician

you cannot deny that they were political leaders as well, but i do agree that they did a bad job in many things if it was religious or political

originally they were not political figures but they did become it

doesnt mean its good

they also controlled the taxes under king's command

wich is another huge part of being a politician

controlled the local market

another political thing

so yeah

they were political

and i myself do want to go to bible college in budapest im not old enough yet though but just because you went to one does not mean you know everything you cant just say "i know the bible" when there is alot you do not know

and that counts for everyone

even the greatest scolars have innacurecies

I know the Bible decently well

I have written many research papers on different subjects

Look into homiletics

i believe you truly but you certainly dont know everything, wich was my point but anywaays

they were political leaders

You don't know everything either and can be wrong

At this point it is a "that's what you are argument"

I am leaving it as they were spiritual leaders (who sucked at their job) who did political stuff. Just because someone does political things it doesn't make them a politician

^^^

fr they sucked at it

luckily a handful of them came to christ

Yes, thankful a few did see the truth with Jesus

like philipus

may i ask

where did you have your bible college?

Fruitland Baptist Bible College

In the mountains of NC
