    1Now there was among the Pharisees a man named Nicodemus, who was one of the rulers of the Jews.

    2He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.

    3Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you, Without a new birth no man is able to see the kingdom of God.

    4Nicodemus said to him, How is it possible for a man to be given birth when he is old? Is he able to go into his mother's body a second time and come to birth again?

    9And Nicodemus said to him, How is it possible for these things to be?
