Nicodemus ben Gurion
Nicodemus ben Gurion (Hebrew: נקדימון בן גוריון Nakdimon ben Gurion) was a wealthy Jew who lived in Jerusalem in the 1st century CE. He is believed by some to be identical to the Nicodemus mentioned in the Gospel of John. Elsewhere he is discussed in Josephus' history, ''The Jewish War'',〔 (cf. (note, Steve Mason ))〕 and later, rabbinic works: Lamentations Rabbah,〔i. 5;〕 Ecclesiastes Rabbah,〔vii. 11〕 the Babylonian Talmud,〔Ta'anit 19b (pdf ); Ktubot (65a-b ), (66b ), (67a ); Gittin (56a ) (cf. Josephus, Jewish War, v. 1, § 4); Avodah Zarah (25a ). All links to Isidore Epstein's translation.〕 and Avot of Rabbi Natan.〔vi. 3〕
''Ben Gurion'' means "son of Gurion" in Hebrew and his real name was apparently ''Buni'' or ''Bunai''.〔(note 52:1 of Tractate of Babylonian Ta'anit at 21a (scroll to page 52) Jewish Virtual Library )〕 He acquired the nickname ''Nicodemus'', meaning "conqueror of the people" (from νίκη and δῆμος), or alternate semitic etymology Naqdimon, because of a miraculous answer to a prayer he made.
Nicodemus appears to have been a wealthy and respected figure, known for his holiness and generosity. He was an opponent of the Zealots and of the rebellion against Rome which led to the destruction of Jerusalem.
When Vespasian became emperor, Nicodemus sought peace with the emperor's son Titus, who was conducting the war. He agitated against the prosecution of the war by the Zealots. In retaliation, they destroyed the stores of provisions that he and his friends had accumulated for the use of pilgrims.〔
