John 1:47-51
Chapter 1
47
When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him:
“Here comes an Israelite, a true one; there is nothing false in him.”
48
Nathanael asked him:
“How do you know me?”
Jesus answered:
“Before Philip called you, you were under the fig tree, and I saw you.”
49
Nathanael responded:
“Master, you are the Son of God! You are the king of Israel!”
50
Jesus answered:
“You believe because I said, ‘I saw you under the fig tree.’ But you will see greater things than that.”
And he said to him:
51
“Truly, I say to you, you will see the heavens opened and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.”
