Information

• In the Gospel of John, Bartholomew is not mentioned. However, Nathanael is named as being with the disciples on a fishing trip. It is possible, though unclear, whether Nathanael is Bartholomew.

• Bartholomew is not mentioned outside of the 4 lists of the disciples, so little is known about him.
