Aug 24 Jn 1:45-51 THE CALL OF NATHANIEL It is believed that Nathaniel & Bartholomew refer to the same person. Bartholomew is a patronymic name, one that gives the name of the father, meaning son of Thomai or Ptolemy. Jesus calls Nathanael "a true Israelite." Israel means "the one who sees God." Nathanael is promised a vision of heavenly things similar to Jacob but this time the messenger of God ascend & descend not on a stairway but on Jesus, the Son of Man. Nathanael is about to recognize who Jesus truly is. He will experience the full impact of the messianic titles he uses of Jesus: "Son of God" & "King of Israel." St Bartholomew, Apostle, pray for us!
