Master In Israel

Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

.

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.

 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.

 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?

 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.

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

….

Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

Psalm 87

His foundation is in the holy mountains.
    Yahweh loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.
.

Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. Selah.
I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me.
    

Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia:
    “This one was born there.”
.

 Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;”
    the Most High himself will establish her.
Yahweh will count, when he writes up the peoples,
    “This one was born there.” Selah.

Those who sing as well as those who dance say,
    “All my springs are in you.”
