Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 1:47

"Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!" — John 1:47 (ASV)

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! (John 1:47)

There is no craft or deception in this man, as there was in Jacob; he is a true Israelite, like Israel at his best.
