Here's a number of posts on the Sanhedrin worth noting (positive and negative):

[The Sanhedrin is the ultimate religious authority in Judaism. This organization has not existed for 1,600 years, but an attempt to reinstituted it was begun about 7 months ago in Israel.]

"Gemara (Eruvin 43b) states that Eliyahu [haNavi, Elijah the prophet] will declare his arrival as the harbinger of Moshiach by coming to the Beis Din HaGadol [aka the Sanhedrin]. This Gemara implies that the Beis Din HaGadol will precede the arrival of Eliyahu, and not the other way around (see Maharitz Chiyos ad loc.)."

All interesting reading on the topic.
