Have you ever fantasized yourself a Bible character either just for fun, curiosity, or even disillusionment? Nicodemus was a Pharisee, yes, but not just any old Pharisee, a Sanhedrin. He was in a superior role in Judaism and if there were any position to be coveted by a devoted religious person of the day he was in it. He had, authority, knowledge, and money. But none of that mattered to him when it came to finding out or realizing the truth. He went to Jesus in the cover of night to see what He was all about. Whether he was there to spy or truly becoming a believer himself we don't know. What we do know is that after Jesus died he was there to honor Jesus.
In John 19:39-40 (NASB) we see that "Nicodemus, who had first come to Him by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred litras weight. So they took the body of Jesus and bound it in linen wrappings with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews". One hundred litras is around 75 pounds and would likely have been quite valuable. But was more valuable was that he found the truth and it was more valuable than possessions. This does, however, symbolize that he likely felt some regret for his lack of intrepidness when he could have interceded. But aren't we glad he didn't?
