Jesus teaches the people out of Peter's ship;4. shows how he will make them fishers of men; 12. cleanses the leper; 16. prays in the desert; 17. heals a paralytic; 27. calls Matthew the tax collector; 29. eats with sinners, as being the physician of souls; 33. foretells the fasting and afflictions of the apostles after his ascension; 36. and illustrates the matter by the parable of patches. When Jesus had finished speaking This phrase indicates the conclusion of Jesus' teaching session. In the context of Luke 5, Jesus was teaching a crowd from Simon Peter's boat. This setting highlights Jesus' use of natural surroundings to amplify His voice and reach more people. The act of teaching from a boat also symbolizes the spreading of the Gospel to the nations, as the sea often represents the Gentile world in biblical symbolism. He said to Simon Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch Persons / Places / Events 1. JesusThe central figure of the New Testament, the Son of God, who is teaching by the Sea of Galilee. 2. Simon (Peter) A fisherman by trade, who would later become one of Jesus' closest disciples and a foundational leader in the early church. 3. Sea of Galilee A freshwater lake in Israel where Jesus performed many miracles and taught the crowds. 4. The Crowd People gathered to hear Jesus teach, demonstrating His growing influence and the public's interest in His message. 5. The Fishing Event Jesus instructs Simon to cast his nets into deep water, leading to a miraculous catch of fish. Teaching Points Obedience to Christ's CommandSimon's willingness to follow Jesus' instruction, despite his own expertise and previous failure, demonstrates the importance of obedience to Christ, even when it defies human logic. Faith in God's Provision The miraculous catch of fish serves as a reminder that God can provide abundantly beyond our expectations when we trust and obey Him. The Call to Discipleship Just as Simon was called to follow Jesus and become a "fisher of men," believers today are called to participate in the mission of spreading the Gospel. Trusting in God's Timing Simon's experience teaches us to trust in God's timing and direction, even when our own efforts seem fruitless. The Power of Jesus' Word The event underscores the authority and power of Jesus' word, which can bring about miraculous results in our lives.(4) Let down your nets.--It is, perhaps, a slight indication that the narrative of St. Luke does not give the same event as the other Gospels, that they use a different word for "net," and one that has, technically, quite a distinct meaning. St. Luke's word, however, is generic, and may therefore include the other; and the other two use it when they speak of the disciples leaving their "nets."Verse 4. - And let down your nets for a draught. Not necessarily a miraculous draught; it was probably a supernatural knowledge which the Lord had of a shoal of fish to be found in the spot indicated by him to the fishermen. Tristram (' Natural History of the Bible ') says, "The thickness of the shoals of fish is almost incredible to any one who has not witnessed them. They often cover an area of more than an acre, and when the fish move slowly forward in a mass, and are rising out of the water, they are packed so close together that it appears as if a heavy rain was beating down on the surface of the water."
