'''Gamaliel''' is the [[Greek language|Greek]] form of the [[Hebrews|Hebrew]] name meaning "reward of God". |
|||
The name designates in the [[New Testament]] a [[Pharisee]] and celebrated doctor of the [[Mosaic Law]]. Gamaliel is represented in [[Acts]] 5:34ff, as advising his fellow-members of the [[Sanhedrin]] not to put to death [[Saint Peter]] and the [[Apostles]], who, notwithstanding the prohibition of the Jewish authorities, had continued to preach to the people. His advice, however unwelcome, was acted upon, so great was his authority with his contemporaries. According to Acts 22:3, he was the teacher of [[Paul of Tarsus|St. Paul]]; but we are not told either the nature or the extent of the influence which he exercised upon the future apostle of the Gentiles. Some scholars, such as [[Helmut Koester]], are doubtful that Paul studied under this famous rabbi. |
|||
The biblical Gamaliel is usually identified with an illustrious Jewish doctor of the Law, who bore the same name and died nine years before the destruction of [[Jerusalem]]. In the [[Talmud]], this Gamaliel bears, like his grandfather [[Hillel the Elder]], the title "[[Rabbi]]". He appears therein, as in Acts, as a prominent member of the highest tribunal of the Jews. He is also treated as the originator of many legal ordinances; as the father of a son, whom he called Simeon, after his father's name, and of a daughter who married the priest [[Simon ben Nathanael]]. The Jewish accounts state he died a Pharisee, and mourn that "when he died, the honour of the [[Torah]] (the law) ceased, and purity and piety became extinct." |
|||
At an early date, ecclesiastical tradition has supposed that Gamaliel embraced the [[Christianity|Christian]] faith, and remained a member of the Sanhedrin for the purpose of helping secretly his fellow-Christians (compare [[Clementine literature|Recognitions of Clement]] I.65,66). According to [[Photius]], he was baptized by St. Peter and St. John, together with his son and with Nicodemus. His body, miraculously discovered in the fifth century, is said to be preserved at [[Pisa]], in [[Italy]]. |
