Great Assembly

Assembly of Jewish sages

According to Jewish tradition the Great Assembly was an assembly of possibly 120 scribes, sages, and prophets, which existed from the early Second Temple period to the early Hellenistic period, roughly coinciding with the Persian hegemony over the nation of Israel. The assembly's members, known as Anshei Knesset HaGedolah, traditionally included such figures as Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi, Ezra, Nehemiah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, Azariah, Mordechai and Zerubbabel.
