John 21:7 Context
5Then Iesus saith vnto them, Children, haue ye any meat? They answered him, No. 6And he said vnto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and yee shall finde. They cast therfore, and now they were not able to draw it, for the multitude of fishes. 7Therefore that Disciple whome Iesus loued, saith vnto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fishers coate vnto him, (for hee was naked) & did cast himselfe into the sea. 8And the other disciples came in a litle ship (for they were not farre from land, but as it were two hundred cubites) dragging the net with fishes. 9Assoone then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coales there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.
