Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written, "'After this I will return, and I will rebuild the tent of David that has fallen; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will restore it, that the remnant of mankind may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name.”

Zech 3:8-10 “Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who sit before you, for they are men who are a sign: behold, I will bring my servant the Branch. For behold, on the stone that I have set before Joshua, on a single stone with seven eyes, I will engrave its inscription, declares the Lord of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of this land in a single day. In that day, declares the Lord of hosts, every one of you will invite his neighbor to come under his vine and under his fig tree." See also Zech 6:12

Before Me there was no God formed, and there will be none after Me. I, I am the LORD, and besides Me there is no savior. I declared and saved and proclaimed, when there was no strange god among you; and you are my witnesses," declares the Lord, "and I am God. Also henceforth I am he; there is none who can deliver from my hand; I work, and who can turn it back?"

Isa 43:18-19 “Remember not the former things [LXX has ‘new things’], nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?

And he said to me, "You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified."
