約翰福音 1章46節 到 1章46節     上一筆  下一筆
 {Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?} (Ek Nazaret
dunatai ti agathon einai;). Literally, "Out of Nazareth can
anything good be." There is a tinge of scorn in the question as
if Nazareth (note position at beginning of sentence) had a bad
name. Town rivalry may account to some extent for it since Cana
(home of Nathanael) was near Nazareth. Clearly he had never heard
of Jesus. The best thing in all the world came out of Nazareth,
but Philip does not argue the point. A saying had arisen that no
prophet comes out of Galilee ( Joh 7:52 ), untrue like many such
sayings. {Come and see} (erchou kai ide). Present middle
imperative (come on) and second active imperative (and see at
once). Philip followed the method of Jesus with Andrew and John
(verse  39 ), probably without knowing it. Wise is the one who
knows how to deal with the sceptic.
