Today’s Gospel from John focusses on a conversation Jesus had with Nicodemus. To give you some important background information, Nicodemus was a Pharisee. Scripture scholars remind us that despite the negative portrayal of Pharisees in the Gospels not all the Pharisees were against Jesus. Yes, there was a small group that were against Jesus and looked for every opportunity to discredit him. But, there were a few like Nicodemus who were drawn to Jesus’s message and wanted to understand his ministry. Of course, there was likely a larger group who were quite indifferent to Jesus and his message. One of the points I am trying to make is that Nicodemus was different from the usual followers of Jesus. He was well educated in Jewish law and was dedicated to grow in his faith. Jesus challenges Nicodemus in a very different way.
