The Interactive Bible: On the divine side, of course, Jesus is the head of the church. The New Testament is very clear in setting out the qualifications of the men who are to guide the affairs of the church. There are two separate passages of scripture which give these qualifications. One is I Timothy 3:1-13. The other is found in Titus 1:6-9. Let us first look at the qualifications of elders. Combining the two passages from I Timothy and Titus, it is easy to see that the qualifications of elders fall naturally into three groups. Some are positive, some are negative, and some are special. With the exception of the special qualifications, these are qualities which ... The positive qualifications include the following: blameless, vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, one that rules well his own house, a good report of them without, a lover of good men, just, holy, temperate, holding fast the faithful word.

The question becomes the more pertinent when we find that the impression was shared by the church fathers. A goodly number believed that Hadrian had given permission to the Jews to restore the temple, while others assign an early date for the founding of Aelia Capitolina.
