When Jesus was finished speaking, he told Simon to go out to deeper water and cast his nets. Simon stated that they had fished all night long without catching any fish. But then Simon agreed saying,

"Master, we've worked hard all night and haven't caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets." (Luke5:5).

The nets were suddenly filled with fish and began to break. They signaled their partners in the other boat for help. They came and filled both boats that they began to sink.

"When Simon saw this, he fell at Jesus' knees and said, "Go away from me Lord; I am a sinful man." (Luke 5:8).

Jesus replied in (Luke 5:10), "Don't be afraid: from now on, you will catch men".

Upon pulling the boats to shore, Peter and his partners left everything and followed Jesus.

How do Jesus Ministry portray the disciples of Jesus?

As followers of Jesus: He calls them to 'follow me' (Mark 1:17) They are portrayed as 'fishermen' because they will gather people into their community. In this respect, the boat became a symbol for the church, which is why the congregation sit in the part of a church called 'the nave' (Latin for boat) The word 'disciple' means 'kearner'. The disciples are, therefore, by definition those who learn (and learn from) the teachings and example of their 'rabbi' teacher, who is Jesus himself.

Three stories from the galilean ministry of Jesus?

Jesus calms the storm: Jesus and his disciples were on a boat when a fierce storm arose. Jesus rebuked the winds and the waves, calming the sea. This display of power showed the disciples Jesus's authority over nature. Feeding of the 5,000: Jesus miraculously fed a large crowd of 5,000 with just five loaves of bread and two fish. This event demonstrated Jesus's compassion for the hungry and his ability to provide abundantly even in times of scarcity. Walking on water: Jesus walked on water to meet his disciples who were in a boat struggling against the waves. Peter also briefly walked on water towards Jesus before losing faith and sinking. This miracle reinforced Jesus's divine nature and the importance of faith in following Him.


Which river did Jesus appear to his disciples after his resurrection?

The Sea of Galilee, also called the Sea of Tiberias. It is not a river, or even a sea; it is actually a lake. John 21:1Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Tiberias. It happened this way: 2Simon Peter, Thomas (called Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. 3"I'm going out to fish," Simon Peter told them, and they said, "We'll go with you." So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. 4Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.
