Nathanael Nathanael

Nathanael plays a cameo role in the gospel of John, but is remembered for having sat under the fig tree before meeting Jesus. Apparently he stayed closely associated to Jesus and the other disciples. After the resurrection he appears to seven disciples, and Nathanael is one of them (Joh 21:2).

The name Nathanael is the Greek form of the Hebrew name Nethanel. Please see that name for meaning and etymology.
