Nicodemus was a Pharisee and a member of the Jewish council.
Nicodemus, the one who had first come to Jesus at night, went with Joseph and brought 75 pounds of a myrrh and aloe mixture.
Jesus told Nicodemus, “You’re a well-known teacher of Israel. Can’t you understand this?
Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people.
But look at this! He’s speaking in public, and no one is saying anything to him! Can it be that the rulers really know that this man is the Messiah?
