Commentary on John 1:40
Andrew is identified as 'Simon Peter's brother'—John assumes his readers know Peter's prominence. Andrew immediately goes to find his brother, demonstrating the evangelistic impulse of genuine conversion—those who find Christ want others to find Him too. Family evangelism often proves most effective and challenging. Andrew's quiet, consistent ministry of bringing others to Jesus (also John 6:8-9, 12:22) models faithful witness.
