One of the two who heard John speak and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which means Christ).

After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and his brothers and his disciples, and they stayed there for a few days.

One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,

So his brothers said to him, “Leave here and go to Judea, that your disciples also may see the works you are doing.

For not even his brothers believed in him.

But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private.

It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.

and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother.

Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.

Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”

Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”

Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

So the saying spread abroad among the brothers that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?”
