Matthew 4:19-25

19 and he says to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20 And they, having left their trawl-nets, immediately followed him.

21 And going on thence he saw other two brothers, James the [son] of Zebedee and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their trawl-nets, and he called them;

22 and they, having left the ship and their father, immediately followed him.

23 And [Jesus] went round the whole [of] Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every bodily weakness among the people.

24 And his fame went out into the whole [of] Syria, and they brought to him all that were ill, suffering under various diseases and pains, and those possessed by demons, and lunatics, and paralytics; and he healed them.

25 And great crowds followed him from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judaea, and beyond the Jordan.

Footnotes

• [a]. Lit. 'the trawl-nets.' The word is supposed to derive from the verb 'to cast:' so Mark 1.18; Luke 5.2-6; John 21.6-11; 'seine,' in Matt. 13.47, is a net drawn round from the shore.
• [b]. 'Torments,' or 'tortures.'
• [c]. Meaning, 'ten towns' -- a district with ten towns in NE. Palestine.
