having finished his sermon, he said to Simon, row into deep water, and throw out your nets for a draught. master, said Simon, we have toil'd all the night, without any prize: however, since you give the word, I will throw the net. which being done, they enclosed such a multitude of fish, the net began to break:
they answered him, no. and he said to them, cast the net on the right side of the vessel, and ye shall find. so they cast it, and it was so full of fish they were not able to draw it. thereupon the favourite disciple of Jesus said to Peter, "it is the Lord." as soon as Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt on his coat, (for he was stript) and threw himself into the sea. as for the other disciples, they came in the bark dragging the net full of fish, for they were but about two hundred cubits distant from land.
