“And Nathanael said to him, “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.”” – John 1:46-48 . “It is as though the Lord is telling him: “ Although you are under the shadow of sin, yet I have chosen you.” As Nathaniel realised that he was there under the fig tree and no one else was there, he knew His divinity and answered: “ You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” These words were spoken by the one sitting under the fig tree yet he had not become a dry one for he knew the Lord.” – St. Augustine #youarechosen #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
