Yochanan 1:45-48 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

45. Philippos finds Natan'el and says to him, He whom Moshe [Rabbeinu] wrote of in the Sefer Torah, he whom the Nevi'im also wrote of--Yehoshua ben Yosef [ben Dovid], from Natzeret we have found! [DEVARIM 18:18; YESHAYAH 7:14; 9:5[6]; YECHEZKEL 34:23]

46. And Natan'el said to Philippos, Can anything good come out of Natzeret? [7:41; YESHAYAH 11:1; ZECHARYAH 6:11 12] Philippos says to Natan'el, Bo'u u're'u! (Come and see!) [MELACHIM BAIS 6:13]

47. Yehoshua saw Natan'el coming to him, and he says, Hinei a genuine Ben Yisroel, in whom is no MIRMAH (deceit). [TEHILLIM 32:2; TZEFANYAH 3:13; YESHAYAH 53:9]

48. Natan'el says to him, How do you have da'as of me? In reply, Yehoshua said to him, Before you received your kri'ah (call) from Philippos, while you were beneath the etz hate'enah (fig tree, MICHOH 4:4; ZECHARYAH 3:10), I watched you.
