John 3:1-13 The encounter with Nicodemus part 2.
John 3:3 Jesus G2424 answered G611 and G2532 said G2036 unto him, Verily G281, verily G281, I say G3004 unto thee G4671, Except G3362 a man G5100 be born G1080 again G509, he cannot G1410 G3756 see G1492 the kingdom G932 of God G2316.
G2532 καί kai (kai’) conj. and.
G3004 λέγω lego (le’-ğō) v. (properly) to “lay” forth.
G4671 σοί soi (soi’) p:p. to thee.
G3362 ἐάν μή ean me (e-an’ mee’) cond. if not, i.e. unless.
G5100 τίς tis (tiys’) p:i. some or any person or object.
G1080 γεννάω gennao (ǰen-naō’) v. to regenerate.
G509 ἄνωθεν anothen (a’-nō-then) adv. from above.
G1410 δύναμαι dunamai (d̮ï ’-na-mai) v. to be able or possible.
G1492 εἴδω eido (ei’-d̮ō) v. to see (but not limited to the eye). (by extension) to personally know how (to do).

The Protestant faith claims that this is the moment a person believes that Yeshua lived, died and resurrected. Catholicism states this regeneration happens when a person is baptized into the faith. Others say it is the combination of the two.
Looking at Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians, and the example set forth by Yeshua, this is explained.
[a] As Jesus emptied himself for service to the Father and to men of clay, we also are to purge ourselves of the old leaven in order that we may be a fresh new lump of dough as we truly are: unleavened and alive in the Anointed-One, our Passover sacrifice.
The word quickening is G2227 ζωοποιέω zoopoieo (zō-o-poi-ye’-ō) v. to (re-)vitalize.
True, these actions of belief and baptism, are both an integral part of our overall faith. The theme, however, is the transformation from the earthly to the eternal via the power of YHVH. According to these verses it is the relationship of the believer to YHVH that initiates the transfiguration. And, the transfiguration comes in the end of our earthly existence or at the end of earth’s existence.
John 3:4 Nicodemus G3530 saith G3004 unto G4314 him, How G4459 can G1410 a man be born G1080 when he is G5607 old? can G3361 G1410 he enter G1525 the second time G1208 into G1519 his G846 mother’s G3384 womb G2836, and G2532 be born G1080?
G3530 Νικόδημος Nikodemos (niy-ko’-d̮ee-mos) n/p. victorious among his people.
G4459 πῶς pos (pōs’) adv. in what way?
G1080 γεννάω gennao (ǰen-naō’) v (by extension, of the mother) to conceive.
G1525 εἰσέρχομαι eiserchomai (eis-er’-cho-mai) v. to enter.
G1208 δεύτερος deuteros (d̮ef’-te-ros) adj. second (in time, place, or rank).
Nicodemus is obviously not catching what it is that Yeshua is explaining to him. Nicodemus is said to be a Pharisee, yet it was the Sadducees that denied the resurrection of the dead and the existence of spirits. It is possible he was swayed by the Sadducees in this thought. Either way, Nicodemus couldn’t see the separation of the physical from the eternal “being”.
This is a continual struggle for many of us. Yeshua tells the people in Matthew 13:13 “Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.” Nicodemus even though he is a “learned” man, he too, is having difficulty in putting things together.
John 3:5 Jesus G2424 answered G611, Verily G281, verily G281, I say G3004 unto thee G4671, Except G3362 a man G5100 be born G1080 of G1537 water G5204 and G2532 of the Spirit G4151, he cannot G3756 G1410 enter into the kingdom G932 of God G2316.

And, we are not yet reborn into our spiritual bodies. That will happen at the last trump. Those who are asleep (because the first death is not eternal) will be raised, some to life everlasting and some to death and contempt. (Daniel 12:2) Even Paul claims is as the hope of redemption. Until we finish this race set before us.
