John 1:44

Verse 44 of 51. The 1st of 21 chapters in John, in The Gospels.

40One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

41He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).

42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).

43On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”

44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”

46Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”

47Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”

48Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
