Does anybody know if Thomas in the Bible made a statement is there anything good from Galilee?

No. It was Nathanael. See the verse below, and it was in reference to Nazareth, Jesus' home town which was in Galilee:45Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. 46And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.


What disciple made the statement is there anything good in galilee?

Actually the statement relates specifically to Nazareth, which is in Galilee, bu the town apart from being small and insignificant, evidently had a bad reputation in Jesus' day.45Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. 46And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see. In any case, as the verse above indicates, it was Nathanael.

Which disciple did Jesus see under the fig tree?

The man Jesus saw under the fig tree was Nathanael. You will find this story in John 1:43-51. 43The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. Finding Philip, he said to him, "Follow me." 44Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida. 45Philip found Nathanael and told him, "We have found the one Moses wrote about in the Law, and about whom the prophets also wrote-Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph." 46"Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?" Nathanael asked. "Come and see," said Philip. 47When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, "Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is nothing false." 48"How do you know me?" Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, "I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you." 49Then Nathanael declared, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel." 50Jesus said, "You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You shall see greater things than that." 51He then added, "I tell you the truth, you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."

How did peter follow jesus?

They recognized that Jesus was the son of God.Jn 1:43-51On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him,"Follow me." Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter. Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?"Philip said to him, "Come and see."Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!"Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?"Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!"Answer/Philip and Nathanael, being well versed in the books of the prophets, found that the parables and riddles and sometimes direct meanings written concerning the coming of the Messiah, were expressed in Jesus of Nazareth - (where he had been brought up) - Luke 4:16.Nathanael in John 1:45 - 46, challenged Philip on the veracity of Jesus of Nazareth being the Messiah, due to Micah prophesying that the Messiah was to come forth from Bethlehem - Micah 5:2. Philip replied to Nathanael 'come and see'.Jesus met Nathanael and imparted to him information that only 'one from of old, from everlasting.', (Micah 5:2) would know about Nathanael, who then exclaimed, 'Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel!' - John 1:49.Previously Jesus had said to Nathanael, 'Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!' Nathanael being wise in the content of the books of Moses, knew Exodus 21:14 which says that one 'should not come upon his neighbour and slay him with guile', as one who hides in a tree and descends upon a passerby.Nathanael asked Jesus in what respect did this concern him, whereupon Jesus replied that he had seen him, ' "under the fig tree" ', contrary to with guile hiding in the fig tree, and he perceived that Jesus knew that on a previous occasion he had been hidden in a fig tree.That previous occasion was during the time when the children were about to be slain by Herod, and - 'The mother of Nathanael took him and set him up upon a fig tree, and she covered him with the leaves thereof.' Ref: The History of the Blessed Mary.If found out that the edict of Herod had not been carried out, Nathanael and his mother were under threat of death and so only she and him or perhaps trusted brethren knew of the matter, and why Nathanael knew that Jesus was - 'one from of old, from everlasting' - the Messiah, of whom he could not refute, which served to confirm both him and Philip as followers of Jesus Christ.

How did Bartholomew the Apostle meet jesus?

Only the Gospel of John has Philip with a name other than Bartholomew:John 1:43-50New King James Version (NKJV) Philip and Nathanael43 The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found Philip and said to him, "Follow Me." 44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote-Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."46 And Nathanael said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?"Philip said to him, "Come and see."47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!"48 Nathanael said to Him, "How do You know me?"Jesus answered and said to him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."49 Nathanael answered and said to Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"50 Jesus answered and said to him, "Because I said to you, 'I saw you under the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."It has been assumed that Nathanael and Bartholomew are one and the same as Philip is with Bartholomew in the Synoptic Gospels:Matthew 10:2-4New King James Version (NKJV) 2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was[a] Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Cananite,[b] and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.
