It was at the Lake of Tiberias. The circumstances were as follows. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of the Master's disciples. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." "We will go too," said they. So they set out and went on board their boat; but they caught nothing that night.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>When, however, day was now dawning, Jesus stood on the beach, though the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>He called to them. "Children," He said, "have you any food there?" "No," they answered. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>"Throw the net in on the right hand side," He said, "and you will find fish." So they threw the net in, and now they could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, "It is the Master." Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words, "It is the Master," drew on his fisherman's shirt—for he had not been wearing it—put on his girdle, and sprang into the water. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>But the rest of the disciples came in the small boat (for they were not far from land—only about a hundred yards off)</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there, with fish broiling on it, and bread close by. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they had just caught. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there were so many, the net had not broken.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>"Come this way and have breakfast," said Jesus. But not one of the disciples ventured to question Him as to who He was, for they felt sure that it was the Master. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave them some, and the fish in the same way. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>This was now the third occasion on which Jesus showed Himself to the disciples after He had risen from among the dead.</p> <p class="hdg">Jesus Reinstates Peter</p><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>When they had finished breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?" "Yes, Master," was his answer; "you know that you are dear to me." "Then feed my lambs," replied Jesus. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>Again a second time He asked him, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" "Yes, Master," he said, "you know that you are dear to me." "Then be a shepherd to my sheep," He said. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>A third time Jesus put the question: "Simon, son of John, am I dear to you?" It grieved Peter that Jesus asked him the third time, "Am I dear to you?" "Master," he replied, "you know everything, you can see that you are dear to me." "Then feed my much-loved sheep," said Jesus.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>"In most solemn truth I tell you that whereas, when you were young, you used to put on your girdle and walk whichever way you chose, when you have grown old you will stretch out your arms and some one else will put a girdle round you and carry you where you have no wish to go." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>This He said to indicate the kind of death by which that disciple would bring glory to God; and after speaking thus He said to him, "Follow me."</p> <p class="hdg">Jesus and the Beloved Apostle</p><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus loved following—the one who at the supper had leaned back on His breast and had asked, "Master, who is it that is betraying you?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>On seeing him, Peter asked Jesus, "And, Master, what about him?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>"If I desire him to remain till I come," replied Jesus, "what concern is that of yours? You, yourself, must follow me." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>Hence the report spread among the brethren that that disciple would never die. Yet Jesus did not say, "He is not to die," but, "If I desire him to remain till I come, what concern is that of yours?"</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>That is the disciple who gives his testimony as to these matters, and has written this history; and we know that his testimony is true.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/21-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>But there are also many other things which Jesus did—so vast a number indeed that if they were all described in detail, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would have to be written.</p></div></div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">Weymouth New testament<br /><br /><a href="//intbible.com">Section Headings Courtesy INT Bible<br />© 2012, Used by Permission</a><span class="p"><br /><br /><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/">Bible Hub</a></div></div></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="../john/20.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="John 20"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="John 20" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="../acts/1.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Acts 1"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Acts 1" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="rightbox"><div class="padright"><div id="pic"><iframe width="100%" height="860" scrolling="no" src="//biblescan.com/mpad/john/21-1.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></div></div><div id="rightbox4"><div class="padright2"><div id="spons1"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td class="sp1"><iframe src="//biblemenus.com/adframe120.htm" width="122" height="602" scrolling="no" frameborder="0"></iframe><br /><br /></td></tr></table></div></div></div> <div align="center"><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhnm2.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe><div align="center"><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span></div></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
