Thematic Bible



When he stopped speaking, he said to Simon, "Push out to the deep water and lower your nets for a take."

As he was walking along the sea of Galilee he saw two brothers, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew, casting a net in the sea ??for they were fishermen; so he said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you fish for men." And they dropped their nets at once and followed him. read more.

Again, the Realm of heaven is like a net which was thrown into the sea and collected fish of every sort.

So he told them, "Throw your net on the right of the boat, and you will have a take." At this they threw the net, and now they could not haul it in for the mass of fish. So the disciple who was Jesus' favourite said to Peter, "It is the Lord!"

When they got to land, they saw a charcoal fire burning, with fish cooking on it, and some bread. Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish you have just caught." So Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty three of them; but for all their number the net was not torn.
