47. Jesus saw Nathanael approaching. Here is what Jesus said about him. "He is a true Israelite. There is nothing false in him."
48. "How do you know me?" Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, "I saw you while you were still under the fig tree. I saw you there before Philip called you."
49. Nathanael replied, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel."
50. Jesus said, "You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that."
