40. One of them was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41. At once he found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah.” (This word means “Christ”.)
42. Then he took Simon to Jesus.Jesus looked at him and said, “Your name is Simon son of John, but you will be called Cephas.” (This is the same as Peter and means “a rock”.)
43. The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, “Come with me!”
44. (Philip was from Bethsaida, the town where Andrew and Peter lived.)
45. Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the one whom Moses wrote about in the book of the Law and whom the prophets also wrote about. He is Jesus son of Joseph, from Nazareth.”
46. “Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Nathanael asked.“Come and see,” answered Philip.
47. When Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, he said about him, “Here is a real Israelite; there is nothing false in him!”
