John 1:46-51 And Nathanael said to him (Philip), "Can anything good

come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see." Jesus saw

Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite

indeed, in whom is no deceit!" Nathanael said to Him, "How do You know

me?" Jesus answered and said to him, "Before Philip called you, when

you were under the fig tree, I saw you." Nathanael answered and said

to Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are 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 will see greater things than

these." And He said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter

you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and

descending upon the Son of Man."
