Andrew was the earliest of the disciples, who brought his own brother Simon to Jesus (John 1:40-42). He is mentioned as in close association with Simon, James, and John, as partners with them in the fishing-trade on the lake of Galilee (see Mark 1:16, 29, and Mark 3:18, compared with Luke 5:10).

From the handful of passages he appears in, we can make several observations about who Andrew was. Here are the basics.
Andrew receives very little attention in the New Testament. Aside from the times where he’s merely listed among the disciples and the passages recounting when Jesus first called the disciples, there are only three places where he plays any significant role. (And they aren’t really that significant.)
Tradition holds that Andrew was martyred by crucifixion in the Greek city of Patras around 60 AD. Like his brother, Peter, Andrew allegedly didn’t consider himself worthy to die in the same way as Jesus, and tradition claims he was bound—not nailed—to a cross which was hung in an X shape instead of a T. However, the earliest origin of this narrativ...
Acts of Andrewis an apocryphal text from the second or third century which claims to record the ministry of Andrew the apostle, which focused on the region of Achaea. Eusebius of Caesarea included it in a list of false accounts of the apostles that were regularly cited by heretics. He noted that these were texts “which no one belonging to the succe...
Andrew was probably known as the brother of Simon from the moment he was born. And nearly two millennia after his death, it’s still the most widely known detail about him. But while Andrew wasn’t nearly as prominent in the New Testament as Peter, he still clearly had an important role in the early church—so much so that heretics tried to leverage h...
Sep 15, 2023 · We get one big glimpse of who Andrew was early in John, but outside of that he remains relatively unknown, though he was one of the twelve chosen by Jesus. Today we will look at some of those mentions and see what we can gather from what was written about Andrew in the Bible.
Jan 10, 2015 · 1. Short answer: The two disciples of John the Baptist seem to be Andrew (per John 1:40) and John the Apostle. John’s Gospel: One key point in trying to identify the two disciples of John the Baptist is that, in writing the fourth Gospel, John the Evangelist/Apostle never names himself.
Andrew formed a human link between the Saviour and his lost brother. Was it worth the effort? Was it worth giving his testimony? Read the whole of verse 42, and try to imagine how Andrew must have felt at Caesarea Philippi (Matthew 16:13-19), and at Pentecost (Acts 2:14).
We read of Andrew and Peter’s calling in Matthew 4:18-22 “While walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. And he said to them, ‘Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.’
