Lucas 5:2

2 e viu dois barcos junto � praia do lago; mas os pescadores haviam descido deles, e estavam lavando as redes.

Lucas 5:2 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 5:2

And saw two ships standing by the lake
Or two fishing boats; which were, as the Arabic version renders it, "detained by anchors at the shore of the lake"; the one belonging to Peter and Andrew, and the other to Zebedee, and his two sons, James and John:

but the fishermen were gone out of them;
that is, either the above persons, or their servants:

and were washing their nets;
on shore; they having gathered a great deal of soil and filthiness, but had caught no fish; and therefore were cleansing their nets, in order to lay them up, finding it to be in vain to make any further attempts with them at present; and which considered, makes the following miracle the more illustrious.

Lucas 5:2 In-Context

1 Certa vez, quando a multidão apertava Jesus para ouvir a palavra de Deus, ele estava junto ao lago de Genezaré;
2 e viu dois barcos junto � praia do lago; mas os pescadores haviam descido deles, e estavam lavando as redes.
3 Entrando ele num dos barcos, que era o de Simão, pediu-lhe que o afastasse um pouco da terra; e, sentando-se, ensinava do barco as multidões.
4 Quando acabou de falar, disse a Simão: Faze-te ao largo e lançai as vossas redes para a pesca.
5 Ao que disse Simão: Mestre, trabalhamos a noite toda, e nada apanhamos; mas, sobre tua palavra, lançarei as redes.
