Thematic Bible: Fish caught in


Thematic Bible



When he finished speaking he asked Simon to put into deep water and let down the nets for a catch.

Jesus walked on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. There he saw Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother. They were fishermen. He said to them: Follow me and I will teach you to catch people. At once they abandoned their nets and followed him. read more.
He saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother. They were in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them.

The kingdom of heaven is like a net cast into the sea. It gathered fish of every kind.

He said: Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will find fish. They cast it and they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes. That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter: It is the Lord. So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his coat about him (for he was dressed only in undergarments), and jumped into the sea. The other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from the land, but about one hundred yards away), dragging the net full of fishes. read more.
When they got to land, they saw a fire of coals and fish laid on it, and bread. Jesus said: Bring the fish you caught. Simon Peter went to draw the net to land. It was full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty three in all. There were so many and yet the net was not torn.
