The Essenes were a Jewish sect that rejected the restoration of the Temple under the Hasmonean dynasty. They considered the High Priest in the era of the Saducees to be a userper. They retreated into what appear to have been monastic communities to await the coming of the Messiahs, the Messiah ben David who would restore the Davidic Kingdom, and the Messiah ben Joseph who would rebuild the Temple, and the Righteous Priest who would restore legitimate sacrifices.
