Ananias son of Nedebeus information


Ananias son of Nedebeus (Hebrew: חנניה בן נדבאי Ḥananyá ben Nadváy "…(son of) the philanthropist") was a high priest who, according to the Acts of the Apostles, presided during the trials of the apostle Paul at Jerusalem (Acts 23:2) and Caesarea (Acts 24:1).

Josephus, Antiquities xx. 5. 2, called him "Ananias ben Nebedeus". He officiated as high priest from about AD 47 to 58. Lord Arthur Hervey, Bishop of Bath and Wells from 1869 to 1894, described him as "a violent, haughty, gluttonous, and rapacious man, and yet looked up to by the Jews".[1]
