From N: And in addition, the accusation of murder was directed not at the Pharisees, but at the Sadducean priests, the Jews who collaborated with Roman rule. And the Gospel-writers are quite capable of specifying that they're talking about Pharisees, when they are. The translations indicate a global attack on First Century Judaism. Understandable, because this was the moment when the Jesus sect was being removed from the synagogues. And as defining proof of this, the recent exercise by the Catholic Church to apologize for and revise the clear anti-Semitic import of the polemical Gospels was offering atonement not for unjust things said about Pharisees, but about the Jews as a whole.

The church of Mel Gibson, and his father, rejects this gesture, btw.
