I have foolishly let go of my copy of JAMES THE BROTHER OF JESUS. But I specifically remember a footnote that quotes the 2 sections of Talmud that testify to Rechabites gaining entre into the priestly world by marrying the children of the High Priest. I wish I had the footnotes right in front of me.... but if someone has a copy of the book in front of them... it should be straightforward to find. I will be responding to some of the other posts today or tomorrow.
