John 7:50-53
Nicodemus. See note on Joh 3:1. Doth our law judge, etc.? Of course it did not, but for him to say a word in defense of justice brought the charge that he was a follower of the Galilean. Out of Galilee ariseth no prophet. The rulers in their rage make a false statement. Jonah (2Ki 14:25), Elijah (1Ki 17:1), and Nahum (Na 1:1) were all of Galilee.
