Andrew is a significant figure in the New Testament, known primarily as one of the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ. Andrew in the Bible Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was a fisherman by trade. He is first introduced in the Gospel of John as a disciple of John the Baptist. Upon hearing John the Baptist refer to Jesus as the "Lamb of God," Andrew, along with another disciple, followed Jesus (<a href="/john/1-35.htm">John 1:35-40</a>). Andrew is notable for his role in bringing others to Christ. After spending time with Jesus, Andrew immediately found his brother Simon and told him, "We have found the Messiah" (which is translated as Christ) (<a href="/john/1-41.htm">John 1:41</a>). This act of bringing Simon Peter to Jesus highlights Andrew's evangelistic spirit. Andrew is also mentioned in the Synoptic Gospels. In the Gospel of Matthew, he is called by Jesus while casting a net into the sea with his brother Peter. Jesus said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men" (<a href="/matthew/4-19.htm">Matthew 4:19</a>). Andrew's immediate response to Jesus' call exemplifies his faith and willingness to follow Christ. In the Gospel of Mark, Andrew is listed among the first four disciples called by Jesus, alongside Peter, James, and John (<a href="/mark/1-16.htm">Mark 1:16-20</a>). The Gospel of Luke also includes Andrew in the list of the twelve apostles (<a href="/luke/6-14.htm">Luke 6:14</a>). Role in the Early Church Andrew's role in the early church is less prominent in the biblical text compared to other apostles like Peter, John, and Paul. However, his initial act of bringing Peter to Jesus had a profound impact on the spread of Christianity, as Peter became a leading figure in the early church. In the Gospel of John, Andrew is involved in the feeding of the five thousand. It is Andrew who points out the boy with five barley loaves and two fish to Jesus, demonstrating his attentiveness and willingness to bring resources to Christ, even when they seemed insufficient (<a href="/john/6-8.htm">John 6:8-9</a>). Andrew also appears in <a href="/john/12-20.htm">John 12:20-22</a>, where he, along with Philip, brings a group of Greeks to Jesus who were seeking to see Him. This incident underscores Andrew's role as a facilitator in bringing people to Christ, regardless of their background. Tradition and Legacy While the New Testament does not provide details about Andrew's later life or death, early church tradition holds that he preached the Gospel in various regions, including Scythia, Greece, and Asia Minor. According to tradition, Andrew was martyred by crucifixion on an X-shaped cross, which is now known as "St. Andrew's Cross." Andrew's legacy is celebrated in various Christian traditions, and he is regarded as the patron saint of several countries, including Scotland and Russia. His feast day is observed on November 30th in many Christian liturgical calendars. Conclusion The name "Drew," as a derivative of Andrew, carries with it the legacy of one of Jesus' first disciples, known for his evangelistic zeal and role in the early Christian community. Andrew's example of faith, immediate response to Jesus' call, and dedication to bringing others to Christ continues to inspire believers today.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
