Nathanael: Given or gift of God, one of our Lord's disciples, "of Cana in
Galilee"
(John 21:2) He was "an Israelite indeed, in whom was no guile"
(John 1:47,48) His name occurs only in the Gospel of John, who in his
list of the disciples never mentions Bartholomew, with whom he has
consequently been identified. He was one of those to whom the Lord
showed himself alive after his resurrection, at the Sea of Tiberias.
