He said to him, "Most assuredly, I tell you, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
At least 16 different names and titles of Jesus appear in chapter one: the Word (John 1:1; John 1:14), the light (John 1:7-9), the only begotten of the Father (John 1:14), Jesus Christ (John 1:17), the only begotten God (John 1:18), the Lord (John 1:23), the Lamb of God (John 1:29; John 1:36), a man (John 1:30), the Son of God (John 1:34), Rabbi (Teacher, John 1:38; John 1:49), Messiah (John 1:41), Jesus of Nazareth (John 1:45), the son of Joseph (John 1:45), the Son of God (John 1:49), the King of Israel (John 1:49), and the Son of Man (John 1:51). Clearly one of John’s purposes in this Gospel was to draw attention to who Jesus is.
