Was Caiaphas a Levite?

Caiaphas, according to the New Testament, was a Jewish High Priest, so he must have been from the subsection of Levites called Cohens (the descendants of Aaron, Moses's brother). Since Aaron was himself a Levite, all Cohens are Levites.


Who was priest when Jesus died?

There were many 'priests' around in that time... all from the tribe of Levi (as commanded in the Old testament). None of these, including the chief priests, are mentioned by name in the Gospel accoun t of the trials. However, the HIGH priest - the chief of all the priests, was mentioned. He was Caiaphas (pronounced Kigh - a - Fass) and it was he who led the Jewish trial against Jesus.


What were the accusations made against Jesus?

BlasphemyMatthew 26:63 But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest ed and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God. 26:64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.26:65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.Luke 22:67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:22:68 And if I also ask you, ye will not me, nor let me go.22:69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.22:70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.22:71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.Mark 4:61 But he held his peace, and ed nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.14:63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?14:64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.The blasphemy which Jesus was supposed to have uttered related to His claim to deity, which the High Priest of course rejected. For a man to claim to be God would of course be indeed blasphemy. But from the lips of Jesus it was the utter truth.

Who does the writer of Hebrews compare Christ as a High Priest with?

The purpose of the High Priest in the Old Testament was to be an intercessor and a representative between God and man. There were strict rules that a Man had to adhere to in order to be forgiven his sin and pray to God. The High Priest made offerings to atone for all of Man's sin. Once a year, he entered the Holiest of Holies to pray and intercede for all the people. In the New Testament, God sent his spirit to dwell with Man and each person can intercede and be forgiven and commune directly with God. This was accomplished through the death and resurrection of Christ.

And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death." This passage is preparing the reader for what is to come later in the same book. John 18:14 reflects back on this passage when Caiaphas was interviewing Jesus on the night of his arrest.
