John 1:49

In context

47Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him and said of him, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit.” 48“How do you know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, “Before Philip called you, while you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” 49Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” 50Jesus answered, “You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than that.” 51And he said to him, “Very truly I tell you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
