Why is Nicodemus significant in the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Nicodemus represents the journey from religious knowledge to true faith in Christ (John 3, 7, 19).

Nicodemus, initially a Pharisee, comes to Jesus seeking truth, highlighting a progression from knowledge to faith. His first encounter (John 3) reveals a misunderstanding of spiritual truths, yet he is sincerely seeking. Over time, Nicodemus stands up for Jesus amid opposition (John 7) and ultimately honors Him in His burial (John 19). His journey mirrors that of many believers—seeking, questioning, and ultimately coming to recognize the necessity of divine grace and the authority of Christ.
