Matt.27[ 57] When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph , who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

Mark.15[ 43] Joseph of Arimathaea, and honourable counseller, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.

Luke.23[ 50] And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counseller ; and he was a good man, and a just:[51 ] (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.

John.19[ 38] And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews , besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.[39 ] And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.
pound weight.[
40] Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.
John.3 [1] There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:[2 ] The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
[3] Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.[ 4] Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?[5] Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.[6 ] That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.[7 ] Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.[ 8] The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.[ 9] Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?[10 ] Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
John.7 [48] Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?[49 ] But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.[ 50] Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night , being one of them ,)[51 ] Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?

Acts.5[ 34] Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space; [35] And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.[36 ] For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.[ 37] After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.[ 38] And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:[39 ] But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

Acts.21[ 40] And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue , saying,

Acts.22[ 1] Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you.[2 ] (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)[3] I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.

Acts.23[ 6] But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.

Acts.26[ 1] Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:[2] I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Jews:[3 ] Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.[4] My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;[5] Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

Phil.3[ 5] Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee ;

John.12[ 42] Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him ; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

Acts.6[ 7] And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.

John.11[ 45] Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

John.12[ 9] Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.[ 10] But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;[11 ] Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

Acts.14[ 1] And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.
