Andrew, Apostle
John 1:35-42 (NRSV)
John 1:35-42 (NRSV)
The
next day John again was standing with two of his disciples, and as he
watched Jesus walk by, he exclaimed, "Look, here is the Lamb of God!"
The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus. When
Jesus turned and saw them following, he said to them, "What are you
looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which translated means
Teacher), "where are you staying?" He said to them, "Come and see."
They came and saw where he was staying, and they remained with him that
day. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon. One of the two who
heard John speak and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. He
first found his brother Simon and said to him, "We have found the
Messiah" (which is translated Anointed). He brought Simon to Jesus, who
looked at him and said, "You are Simon son of John. You are to be
called Cephas" (which is translated Peter).
