Lecture XV: Nicodemus - The Pharisee
from The Trial of Jesus Christ by One Catholic Lawyer · host David Shaneyfelt
Scholars say we know less about the Pharisees than we once thought we did. But we do know some things. Things from history, Josephus, the Dead Sea Scrolls, rabbinic literature, and the Gospels. Things that help us understand what Nicodemus may have thought and taught. And those things make Nicodemus one of the most intriguing characters in all of the Gospels. A compelling case can be made to call him “St. Nicodemus.”
