Category:Nicodemus (subject)
Nicodemus was, according to Christian tradition, a sympathizer of Jesus of Nazareth at Jerusalem.
Overview
Nicodemus appears only in the Gospel of John, where he is introduced as "a Pharisee... a leader of the Jews... a teacher of Israel." He is present in three episodes:
- First, he visited Jesus one night to listen to his teachings (John 3:1-21); see Meeting with Nicodemus.
- Then he defended Jesus when some high priests and Pharisees wanted to arrest him, by reminding them of the rights that the Law gives to the accused.
- Finally, he was the one who assisted Joseph of Arimathea in preparing the corpse of Jesus for burial, after the crucifixion; see Burial of Jesus.
