John1:38

Joh 1:37-51. First Gathering of Disciples--John Andrew, Simon, Philip, Nathanael.

38. What seek ye--gentle, winning question, remarkable as the Redeemer's first public utterance. (See on Mt 12:18-20.)

where dwellest thou--that is, "That is a question we cannot answer in a moment; but had we Thy company for a calm hour in private, gladly should we open our burden."
