Jewish Galilean Miracle Workers in the Life & Times of Jesus - The Mages of the Rabbinical World

Jesus of Nazareth is without any doubt the most famous of the miracle workers, Jewish or otherwise, of the Second Temple Period. However, because of the glare cast by Jesus and early Christianity, it’s easy to forget that such miracle-workers abounded in the ancient world generally and in the Jewish context more specifically. Several other specifically Galilean miracle-workers are known to us from both Jewish history and lore. In fact, they seem to have constituted a unique class of men capable of such miraculous feats, known as 'anshe ma’aseh' or “men of deeds.” In fact, Jesus’ Jewish contemporaries very likely would have understood him in something like this category. In collaboration with ‪@ReligionForBreakfast‬ in this explore I explore a few of these Galilean miracle-workers or anshe ma’aseh who lived just before and after the lifetime of Jesus of Nazareth. From Honi the circle-maker who could compel G-d to make it rain, to Hanina ben Dosa’s extreme piety accidentally inducing miracles and who forestalled the power of the Queen of Demons to Shimon bar Yochai, so pious that even the key commandments of the Torah didn’t apply to him and whose very gaze could incinerate those before him and from whom the secrets of the Kabbalah are said to flow, even an errant resurrection of the dead following fisticuffs at a Purim party. #Jesus #Talmud #Mishnah Watch Andrew's Episode here -    • Was Jesus a Magician?   Make Sure to Subscribe & Consider supporting Esoterica by becoming a monthly Patron -   / esotericachannel   a one time donation - https://www.paypal.me/esotericachannel or the Super Thanks !
