The Pharisees and Jesus often clashed-yet they had much in common theologically, and Jesus had many non adversarial contacts with them. At the same time, Jesus rejected the validity of the oral laws of the Pharisees and also their emphasis on ritual purity that made the Pharisees refuse any contact with "sinners." Jesus came with the invitation to all people to enter the kingdom of God, while the Pharisees in effect disinvited all who did not live by the same standards as they. It was especially this exclusivism that Jesus objected to in the Pharisees; by using only standards of external behavior to measure people's relationship with God, they failed to realize that it is what is inside a person that counts, and that they therefore needed God's grace as much as the worst sinner. And it was this external religion that made it very difficult for them to believe in Jesus who did not do all the things the Pharisees felt a religious person should do. Jesus' work stirred up very great hatred in the Pharisees. They said that Jesus was in league with Satan. Despite the problems Jesus had with the Pharisee, it was the Sanhedrin who formally challenged Jesus' authority in the court of the temple (Matthew 11:27-33; Matthew 21:23-27) which later lead to the chief priests and elders of the Jews to plot to seize Jesus in secret and to kill him (Mark 14:1-2, Matthew 26:1-5, Luke 22:1-2).

The Jewish leader that condemend jesus to death?
Caiaphas was High Priest. Jesus was sentenced to death on the orders of Pilate, the Roman Governor because the Jewish leaders had no authority to do so. The Pharisees and priests, as a committee, urged Pilate to condemn Jesus.
How did Jesus feel about the Pharisees?
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.

Did the Pharisees condemn Jesus?
Although religiously divided, Pharisees joined Sadducees in trying to tempt Jesus by asking him for a sign (Matthew 16:1), and both groups were united in their opposition to him. However, biblical evidence indicates that the Sadducees took a leading part in seeking Jesus' death. Sadducees were members of the Sanhedrin, which court plotted against Jesus and, later, condemned him to death. (Matthew 26:59-66; John 11:47-53)
