What are saddusees?

The Sadducees were a Jewish sect that emerged during the Second Temple period, primarily active from the 2nd century BCE to the 1st century CE. They were known for their strict adherence to the Torah and rejection of oral traditions, which distinguished them from the Pharisees. The Sadducees held significant political power, often associated with the priestly class and the Temple in Jerusalem, and they denied beliefs such as the resurrection of the dead and the existence of angels. Their influence waned after the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE.
