Rabbis.
After the Romans destroyed the Second Temple (70 CE) the priestly/Temple roles (Sadducees, Levites) largely collapsed. Leadership and religious authority shifted to the rabbis (heirs of Pharisaic traditions), who developed synagogue life, legal interpretation, and communal institutions that carried Judaism forward.
