The following day John was again standing with two of his disciples. As Jesus walked by, John looked at him and declared, “Look! There is the Lamb of God!” When John’s two disciples heard this, they followed Jesus. Jesus looked around and saw them following. “What do you want?” he asked them. They replied, “Rabbi, where are you staying?”

“Come and see,” He said. It was about four o’clock in the afternoon when they went with him to the place where he was staying, and they remained with him the rest of the day.
— John 1:35-39 (NIV)
