40 These men followed Jesus after they had heard about him from John. One of them was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter.
41 The first thing Andrew did was to go and find his brother Simon. Andrew said to him, “We have found the Messiah.” (“Messiah” means “Christ.”)
42 Then Andrew brought Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon, the son of John. You will be called Cephas.” (“Cephas” means “Peter.”)
43 The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He met Philip and said to him, “Follow me.”
44 Philip was from the town of Bethsaida, the same as Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the man that Moses wrote about in the law. The prophets wrote about him too. He is Jesus, the son of Joseph. He is from Nazareth.”
46 But Nathanael said to Philip, “Nazareth! Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Philip answered, “Come and see.”
