Philip relayed this appeal to Andrew Philip, one of the twelve apostles, is often depicted as a bridge between cultures, as his Greek name suggests a connection to the Hellenistic world. This is significant in the context of John 12, where Greeks seek Jesus. Philip's decision to consult Andrew, another apostle with a Greek name, indicates a thoughtful approach to the request. This reflects the early church's mission to reach beyond Jewish boundaries, foreshadowing the inclusion of Gentiles. The partnership between Philip and Andrew highlights the importance of collaboration in ministry. and both of them went and told Jesus Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points The Importance of Community in FaithPhilip and Andrew demonstrate the value of working together in ministry. Their collaboration in bringing the Greeks to Jesus highlights the importance of community and partnership in sharing the Gospel. Bringing Others to Jesus Both Philip and Andrew are examples of disciples who actively bring others to Jesus. This encourages believers to be proactive in introducing others to Christ, using their unique relationships and opportunities. Seeking Guidance and Wisdom Philip's decision to consult Andrew before approaching Jesus shows the importance of seeking counsel and wisdom from fellow believers when faced with decisions or challenges. The Universal Call of the Gospel The interest of the Greeks in seeing Jesus signifies the universal nature of Christ's message, which transcends cultural and ethnic boundaries. Believers are reminded of the call to share the Gospel with all nations.(22) Philip cometh and telleth Andrew.--It is a striking coincidence, and perhaps more than this, that the Greeks thus came into connection with the only Apostles who bear Greek names; and may themselves have had some special connection by birth, or residence, or culture with Greek civilisation. The names have occurred together before (John 1:44; John 6:7-8): they were fellow-townsmen and friends. But Andrew was also brother of Simon Peter, and is one of the first group of four in the apostolic band. (Comp. Mark 13:3.) The Greeks then naturally come to Philip, and Philip consults his friend Andrew, who is in a position of greater intimacy with the Lord than he himself is, and they come together and tell Jesus.Verse 22. - The slight modification of text preferred by the Revised Version gives great vivacity to the picture (see below, note 1). Philip receives the respectful request of the Greeks, "Sir [my lord], we would see Jesus," i.e. "converse with." They probably sought to bring some proposal before him. Surely they must have had, if they wished it, many opportunities of merely seeing Jesus, when he crossed the Mount of Olivet during those three days, or tarried in the court of the Gentiles; now they pressed for an interview. Philip cometh and telleth Andrew. Andrew was the earliest of the disciples, who brought his own brother Simon to Jesus (John 1:40-42). He is mentioned as in close association with Simon, James, and John, as partners with them in the fishing-trade on the lake of Galilee (see Mark 1:16, 29, and Mark 3:18, compared with Luke 5:10). There is some hint that Andrew and John, after the first call to become followers of Christ, clung to him, and went with him to Jerusalem, and then returned with him through Samaria, after which occurred the second call of the brothers Simon and James. The frequent references to Andrew and Philip in this Gospel correspond with the tradition preserved in the Muratorian Fragment on the Canon, touching Andrew's part in the composition of this Gospel. These two disciples are represented as consulting with each other on previous occasions, as though peculiarly related in sympathy. Philip sees certain difficulties, and Andrew has a practical mind, and proposes a way out of them (see John 6:7, 8). There was something now to be said on both sides. Their ancient prophecies anticipated a world-wide aspect of the Messianic kingdom (Isaiah 55:4, 5; Isaiah 56:3, 7; as well as Genesis 49:10). Now, if this incident occurred after Jesus had claimed the hundred and tenth psalm as an oracle which described his own Divine claims and his universal victory as the Lord and Son of David and royal Warrior-Prest (Matthew 22:41-46, and parallel passages), Philip may have felt this moment to be a most critical one in his history; for he may have been perfectly aware of the outbreak of peril which converse with Greek proselytes might at that moment have provoked in the minds of the turbulent populace. Andrew cometh and Philip, and they (together) tell Jesus. Jesus alone could solve the difficulty at that time, and Jesus himself is the just and reasonable Source of all enlightenment. Jesus is at this hour the highest Expression of man and his destiny, and he is also the perfect Manifestation of the Father, the only Mediator between God and man, absolutely one with both. We still go to him to know what God is and what God would have us to think and to be, and to learn what man may become. We take to him the puzzles of our logic, the accusations of our conscience, and the burdens of our heart. Additional interest is thrown round this narrative by a suggestion of Archdeacon Watkins, that, in the course of this week, our Lord had cleansed the temple and courts of its profane traffic, and declared it to be a house of prayer for all nations. Such grand revolutionary conceptions as those of our Lord must have deeply stirred the souls of the susceptible Greeks. Aliens were, as we know from Josephus ('Ant.,' 15:11.5), forbidden to pass beyond the balustrade round the ἵερον,. M. Ganneau has found among the ruins of Jerusalem one of the slabs of stone which recorded this exclusion. Parallel Commentaries ...
