The officers then went back to the chief priests and Pharisees ,
who said to them , »
Why did you not bring him ?«

The officers answered , »
No man ever spoke like this man !«
*
The Pharisees answered them , »
Are you deceived ,
you also ?
*
Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him ?

Nicodemus ,
who had gone to Jesus before ,
and who was one of them ,
said to them ,
* »
Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he is doing ?«
*
They replied , »
Are you from Galilee ,
too ?
Search and look ,
and you will find that no prophet is to rise out of Galilee .«

Then each went to his own house .
