John 1:46 Douay-Rheims

And Nathanael said to him: Can any thing of good come from Nazareth? Philip saith to him: Come and see.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown

1871 Reformed

any good out of Nazareth--remembering Bethlehem, perhaps, as Messiah's predicted birthplace, and Nazareth having no express prophetic place at all, besides being in no repute. The question sprang from mere dread of mistake in a matter so vital. Come and see--Noble remedy against preconceived opinions [BENGEL]. Philip, though he could not perhaps solve his difficulty, could show him how to get rid of it. (See on Joh 6:68).
