Hebrew meaning God has given .Presumably the name of Bartholomew ,hence one of Jesus 12 apostles.Bartholomew meaning son of Tolmai was a patronymic term that is a designation derived from his father.The apostle John uses his given name Nathanael,wereas Mathew,Mark,and Luke call him Bartholomew.When doign so they associate Philip and Bartholomew together ,in the same way that John links Philip with Nathanael.It was not uncommon for persons to be known by more than one name.Simon the son of John also came to be known as Cephas and peter.Nor was it exceptional for Nathanael to be called Bartholomew ,or the son of Tolmai as another man was called simply Bartimaeus or son of Timaeus.The two names Nathanael and Bartholomew are used interchangeably by christian writers of the following centuries.Nathanael was from cana of Galilee.He began folling Jesus early in the Master’s ministry.
