The First Followers of Jesus

35 The next day John[a] was there again with two of his followers. 36 When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”[b]

37 The two followers heard John say this, so they followed Jesus. 38 When Jesus turned and saw them following him, he asked, “What are you looking for?”

They said, “Rabbi, where are you staying?” (“Rabbi” means “Teacher.”)

39 He answered, “Come and see.” So the two men went with Jesus and saw where he was staying and stayed there with him that day. It was about four o’clock in the afternoon.
