Why just the Sadducees had to be the mortal enemies of Jesus

They didn’t know of God’s secret plan. They didn’t hope for the reward that holiness brings. They didn’t consider the prize they would win if they kept their whole beings free from stain.

(Wisdom 2:22)
Nihil enim in speciem fallacius est quam prava religio. -Liv. xxxix. 16.
