John 1:43-48

New King James Version

Philip and Nathanael

⁴³ The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found ^(A)Philip and said to him, “Follow Me.” ⁴⁴ Now ^(B)Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. ⁴⁵ Philip found ^(C)Nathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom ^(D)Moses in the law, and also the ^(E)prophets, wrote—Jesus ^(F)of Nazareth, the ^(G)son of Joseph.”

⁴⁶ And Nathanael said to him, ^(H)“Can anything good come out of Nazareth?”

Philip said to him, “Come and see.”

⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, “Behold, ^(I)an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”

⁴⁸ Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?”

Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
