DAF DISCUSSIONS - BERACHOS 29

Dovid asked:

How does the man de'amar who holds hu yanai hu yochanan explain how yanai was able to be a kohen gadol if he spilled blood in his life?

Dovid, Brooklyn, usa

The Kollel replies:

You assume that Yanai was appointed Kohen Gadol by Sanhedrin. In fact, that was not the case. He took the Kehunah Gedolah by force, as the Gemara explains in Kidushin 66a.
