Bible Question:
In Mark 1:16-20 we read where Jesus called Simon and his brother Andrew to be his disciples. He found them in Galilee fishing. However in John 1:35-42 it says something completely different. Why the discrepancy? Can anybody clear this up? Songbirdca |
Bible Answer: Scripture ... Mar 1:16-20, Jhn 1:35-42 ... Greetings Songbirdca, Notice that the two disciples were John's (Jhn 1:35) and Andrew was one of them (vs 40), who had to go find Simon (vs 41). There is no calling of the three, at this point. He does call Simon and Andrew later (Mark 1:16-20). Many think John's other disciple was John, whom He called soon after (vv 19-20). Hope this helps, Searcher |
