And another of the disciples said to him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. But he saith to him, Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.

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

Simon, whom he named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,

And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Suffer me first to go and bury my father. And he said to him, Let the dead bury their own dead; but go thou and carry the tidings of the kingdom of God.

These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing. The next day he seeth Jesus coming to him, and saith, 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 gone before me; for he was before me. And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, therefore I came baptizing in water. And John bore witness, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove from heaven, and it abode upon him. And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptize in water, the same said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, he it is that baptizeth in the Holy Spirit. And I have seen and have borne witness, that this is the Son of God. On the morrow John was again standing, and two of his disciples; and looking upon Jesus as he was walking, he saith, Behold, the Lamb of God! The two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus. Jesus turning and seeing them following, saith to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi, (that is to say, when interpreted, Teacher,) where dost thou dwell? He saith to them, Come, and ye shall see. They came therefore and saw where he dwelt; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour. One of the two who heard what John said, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peters brother.

One of the two who heard what John said, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peters brother. He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah; (which is, when interpreted, the Christ.)

He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith to him, We have found the Messiah; (which is, when interpreted, the Christ.) He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said, Thou art Simon, the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas; (which signifieth Peter, that is, Rock.)

He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said, Thou art Simon, the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas; (which signifieth Peter, that is, Rock.) On the morrow he determined to go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip. And Jesus saith to him, Follow me. read more. Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets wrote, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.

Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the Law, and the Prophets wrote, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth. And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith to him, Come and see.

And Nathanael said to him, Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith to him, Come and see. Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile. read more. Nathanael saith to him, Whence dost thou know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, when thou wast under the figtree, I saw thee. Nathanael 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 thee, I saw thee under the figtree, dost thou believe? Thou shalt see greater things than these. And he saith to him, Truly, truly do I say to you, Ye will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

Jesus then lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a great crowd was coming to him, saith to Philip, Whence are we to buy bread, that these may eat?

One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peters brother, saith to him,

These came therefore to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we wish to see Jesus. Philip goeth and telleth Andrew; Andrew and Philip go and tell Jesus.

These things said Isaiah, because he saw his glory, and spoke of him.

for they loved the glory that is of men more than the glory that is of God.

Philip saith to him, Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied. Jesus saith to him, Have I been so long time with you, and dost thou not know me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father; how is it that thou sayest, Show us the Father?

But in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, there arose a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration. And the twelve called the multitude of the disciples to them, and said, It doth not seem to us proper, that we should leave the word of God, and provide for tables. read more. Therefore, brethren, look out among you seven men of good repute, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we will appoint over this business; but we will give ourselves closely to prayer, and to the ministry of the word. And what was said pleased the whole 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 Nicolaus a proselyte of Antioch, whom they set before the apostles; and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.

Now those that had been scattered abroad went through the country preaching the word. And Philip went down to a city of Samaria, and preached to them the Christ. read more. And the multitudes with one accord gave heed to the things spoken by Philip, when they heard and saw the signs which he wrought. For from many that had unclean spirits came they out crying with a loud voice; and many that were palsied, and that were lame, were cured. And there was great joy in that city.

But an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, Arise, and go towards the south, to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert way. And he arose and went; and lo! a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a high officer of Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem to worship, read more. was returning and sitting in his chariot; and he was reading the prophet Isaiah. And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near and join thyself to this chariot. And Philip ran up, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, Well, but dost thou understand what thou art reading? And he said, How can I, unless some one shall guide me? And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him. And the passage of the scripture which he was reading was this: "He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so he openeth not his mouth. In his humiliation judgment was refused him; and who shall describe his generation? for his life is taken away from the earth." And the eunuch answering said, I pray thee, of whom doth the prophet say this? Of himself, or of some other man? And Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this scripture declared to him the glad tidings concerning Jesus. And as they went along the road, they came to a certain water; and the eunuch saith, See, here is water; what is there to hinder my being baptized? (...) And he commanded that the chariot should stop; and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. But when they had come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, for he went on his way rejoicing. But Philip was found at Azotus; and passing through, he published the glad tidings in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.

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