Which disciple did the Greeks approach when they wanted to see Jesus?
The Greeks who came up to worship at the feast approached Philip, who was of Bethsaida, saying they desired to see Jesus. Because Philip was unsure he could bring Gentiles into Christ's presence, he went to Andrew, and together they considered how to handle the request.
Les explains that there were Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast, and they came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida, saying, "we would see Jesus." They had likely heard of all His miracles and the things He had done, so they wanted to see this man for themselves. Les points out that Philip, remembering only too well what had happened back in chapter 10 and what had happened in chapter 15, knew he could not just bring a group of Gentiles into Christ's presence. But Philip did not want to take the responsibility for refusing them all by himself, so he went to Andrew and told him there were Greeks who wanted to see Jesus, asking what they were going to do. Les pictures him as being in a real dilemma over the situation.
