John 1:45-51 ▼

45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, |We have found the man whom Moses wrote about in his teachings and whom the prophets wrote about. He is Jesus, son of Joseph, from the city of Nazareth.|

46 Nathanael said to Philip, |Can anything good come from Nazareth?| Philip told him, |Come and see!|

47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and remarked, |Here is a true Israelite who is sincere.|

48 Nathanael asked Jesus, |How do you know anything about me?| Jesus answered him, |I saw you under the fig tree before Philip called you.|

49 Nathanael said to Jesus, |Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the king of Israel!|

50 Jesus replied, |You believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.|

51 Jesus said to Nathanael, |I can guarantee this truth: You will see the sky open and God's angels going up and coming down to the Son of Man.|
