Now they that were sent, were of the pharisees:

Now there was a man of the pharisees, whose name was Nicodemus, a ruler among the Jews:

Therefore when the Lord knew, the pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,

Now the pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning Him: and they, with the chief priests, sent officers to seize Him.

Then came the officers to the chief priests and pharisees, and they said, Why have ye not brought Him? and the officers answered,

The pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also deceived?

have any of the rulers believed on Him, or of the pharisees?

And the scribes and pharisees brought to Him a woman taken in adultery;

The pharisees therefore said to Him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy testimony is not true.

So they brought him, that had formerly been blind, to the pharisees.

Therefore the pharisees also asked him again, how he recovered his sight. And he said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.

Then said some of the pharisees, This man is not of God, because He doth not keep the sabbath: but others said, How can a wicked man do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

And some of the pharisees who were present, heard these words, and said to Him, Are we blind also?

But some of them went to the pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

Therefore the chief priests and the pharisees held a council and said, What are we doing? for this man worketh many miracles.

Now both the chief priests and the pharisees had given order, that if any one knew where He was, he should inform them, that they might take Him.

The pharisees therefore said among themselves, Do ye not see that ye prevail nothing? Behold, all the world is gone after Him.

There were however many of the chief rulers that believed on Him; but because of the pharisees they did not confess it, lest they should be excommunicated.

and officers from the chief priests and pharisees, cometh thither with candles, and lamps, and arms.
