In the New Testament, Nicodemus is a Pharisee and a member of the Jewish ruling council, the Sanhedrin. He is known for his interactions with Jesus, where he seeks to understand Jesus' teachings and later shows support for Him.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Nicodemus was a Pharisee, a sect known for strict adherence to the Law and traditions. As a member of the Sanhedrin, he held a position of authority and influence in Jewish society. His approach to Jesus at night (John 3:1-21) suggests a cautious curiosity, possibly due to the potential repercussions of being associated with Jesus, who was controversial among Jewish leaders. Nicodemus' actions reflect the tension between traditional Jewish beliefs and the new teachings of Jesus.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/3534.htm">nikos</a> and <a href="/greek/1218.htm">démos</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Nicodemus, an Isr.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Nicodemus (5).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 3530: Νικόδημος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">Νικόδημος</span></span> (<span class="greek2">νίκη</span> and <span class="greek2">δῆμος</span> (i. e.
