_ _ Moses — (See John 5:46).

_ _ son of Joseph — the current way of speaking. (See Luke 3:23).

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

John 1:45

Jesus of Nazareth — So Philip thought, not knowing he was born in Bethlehem. Nathanael was probably the same with Bartholomew, that is, the son of Tholomew. St. Matthew joins Bartholomew with Philip, Matthew 10:3, and St. John places Nathanael in the midst of the apostles, immediately after Thomas, John 21:2, just as Bartholomew is placed, Acts 1:13.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

(18) God uses the good endeavours of the unlearned such that he makes them teachers of the learned.
