And another of the disciples said to Him, "Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father." But Jesus saith to him, "Follow Me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."

Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax-collector; James the son of Alpaeus, and Thaddeus;

and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean,

Simon whom He also called Peter, and Andrew his brother; and James, and John, and Philip, and Bartholomew,

And He said to another, "Follow Me." But he said, "Lord, permit me, going away, first to bury my father." And He said, "Leave the dead to bury their own dead; but, going, publish abroad the Kingdom of God."

These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was immersing. On the morrow he sees Jesus coming to him, and he says, "Behold, the Lamb of God Who taketh away the sin of the world! read more. This is He of Whom I said, 'After me cometh a Man Who hath become before me, because He was before me.' And I knew Him not; but, that He might be manifested to Israel, for this cause I came immersing in water." And John testified, saying, "I have beheld the Spirit descending as a dove out of Heaven, and He abode upon Him. And I knew Him not; but He who sent me to immerse in water, He said to me, 'Upon Whomsoever you shall see the Spirit descending and abiding on Him, the Same is He Who immerseth in the Holy Spirit.' And I have seen, and have testified, that This is the Son of God." Again, on the morrow, John was standing, and two of his disciples; and, looking upon Jesus as He was walking, says, "Behold, the Lamb of God!" And the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus. And Jesus, turning and beholding them following, saith to them, "What are ye seeking?" They said to Him, "Rabbi," (which, being translated, means Teacher), "where abidest Thou?" He saith to them, "Come and ye shall see." They came, therefore, and saw where He was abiding, and they abode with Him that day: it was about the tenth hour. Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard it from John, and followed Him.

Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard it from John, and followed Him. He first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, "We have found the Messiah," (which, being translated, is Christ).

He first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, "We have found the Messiah," (which, being translated, is Christ). He led him to Jesus. Jesus looking on him, said, "You are Simon, the son of John; you shall be called Cephas," (which is translated Peter).

He led him to Jesus. Jesus looking on him, said, "You are Simon, the son of John; you shall be called Cephas," (which is translated Peter). On the morrow, He wished to go forth into Galilee; and He findeth Philip, and saith to him, "Follow Me." read more. Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, "We have found Him of Whom Moses in the law and the prophets wrote??esus of Nazareth, the Son of Joseph."

Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, "We have found Him of Whom Moses in the law and the prophets wrote??esus of Nazareth, the Son of Joseph." And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip says to him, "Come and see."

And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip says to him, "Come and see." Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and He saith to him, "Behold, an Israelite, indeed, in whom there is no guile!" read more. Nathanael says to Him, "Whence knowest Thou me?" Jesus answered, and said to him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you." Nathaniel answered Him, "Rabbi, Thou art the Son of God; Thou art the King of Israel." Jesus answered, and said to him, "Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these." And He saith to him, "Verily, verily, I say to you, ye shall see Heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."

Jesus, therefore, lifting up His eyes, and seeing that a great multitude is coming to Him, saith to Philip, "Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?"

One of His disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, says to Him,

These, therefore, came to Philip??ho was from Bethsaida of Galilee??nd were asking Him, saying, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus." Philip comes and tells Andrew; Andrew and Philip come and tell Jesus.

These things Isaiah said, because he saw His glory; and he spake of Him.

for they loved the glory of men, rather than the glory of God.

Philip says to Him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it suffices us." Jesus saith to him, "So long a time am I with you, and you do not know Me, Philip! He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how say you, 'Show us the Father?'

Now in these days, when the disciples were being multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecian Jews against the Hebrews, because their widows were being overlooked in the daily ministration. And the twelve, having called the multitude of the disciples to them, said, "It is not proper that we, leaving the word of God, should serve tables; read more. but look ye out, brethren, from among yourselves, seven well-attested men, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we will appoint over this business; but we will devote ourselves steadfastly to prayer and to the ministry of the word." And the saying was pleasing to the multitude; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch; whom they set before the apostles; and, having prayed, they laid their hands on them.

Those, therefore, who were dispersed, went about, proclaiming the good tidings of the word. And Philip, having come down to the city of Samaria, preached to them the Christ. read more. And the multitudes, with one accord, were giving heed to the things spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the things which he was doing. For unclean spirits came forth from many of those possessing them, crying with a loud voice; and many paralyzed and lame persons were healed; and there was much joy in that city.

But an angel of the Lord spake to Philip, saying, "Arise, and go toward the south, on the way that leads down from Jerusalem to Gaza:" this is a wilderness. And, having arisen, he went on; and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a state-officer of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship; read more. he was also returning, and, sitting on his chariot, was reading the prophet Isaiah. And the Spirit said to Philip, "Go near, and join yourself to this chariot." And Philip, having run near, heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, "Do you, then, understand what you are reading?" But he said, "How, in fact, were I able, unless some one should guide me?" And he besought Philip, having come up, to sit with him. Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and, as a lamb dumb before its shearer, so He openeth not His mouth. In His humiliation, His judgment was taken away; His generation who shall declare? because His life is being taken away from the earth." And the eunuch, answering Philip, said, "I pray you, of whom does the prophet say this, of himself, or of someone else?" And Philip, opening his mouth, and, beginning from this Scripture, proclaimed to him the good news of Jesus. And, as they were journeying along the way, they came to a certain water; and the eunuch says, "Behold, here is water; what hinders me from being immersed?" [And Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."] And he commanded the chariot to stand still; and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he immersed him. And, when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more; for he was going on his way rejoicing. And Philip was found at Azotus; and, passing through, he was publishing the good news to all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.

And, on the morrow, going forth, we came to Caesarea; and, entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was of the seven, we abode with him. And this man had four daughters, virgins, who prophesied.
