Rev., more literally, from (ἀπό). Bethsaida of Galilee. See Joh 12:21, and on Joh 1:28. Philip, being of the same city as Andrew and Peter, was the more ready to welcome Christ, because of the testimony and example of his fellow-citizens. Notice the change of preposition: from Bethsaida (ἀπό) and out of (ἐκ) the city. See on from the dead, Luk 16:31.
