The passage John 3:1-15 describes Jesus's conversation with Nicodemus, a Pharisee and a ruler of the Jews. In this discussion, Jesus teaches about the necessity of being born again (or born from above) to see and enter the Kingdom of God. He explains that this rebirth is not physical but spiritual, coming from water and the Spirit. Jesus also alludes to His own future crucifixion, comparing it to Moses lifting up the serpent in the wilderness, signifying that He must be lifted up so that everyone who believes in Him may have eternal life.
