Mateus 4:17 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 4:17

From that time Jesus began to preach and to say
Not from the time he dwelt in Capernaum; for he had preached in Nazareth before he came there, ( Luke 4:16 Luke 4:31 ) nor from the time of John's being cast into prison; for he had preached, and made disciples, who were baptized by his orders, before John's imprisonment, ( John 3:22 John 3:24-26 ) ( John 4:1 ) but from the time that Satan left tempting him; as soon as that combat was over, immediately he went into Galilee, began to preach, and called his disciples. The words with which he began his ministry are the same with which John begun his; which shows the entire agreement between them, in that they not only preached the same doctrine, but in the same words; (See Gill on Matthew 3:2)

Mateus 4:17 In-Context

15 A terra de Zabulom e a terra de Naftali, o caminho do mar, além do Jordão, a Galiléia dos gentios,
16 o povo que estava sentado em trevas viu uma grande luz; sim, aos que estavam sentados na região da sombra da morte, a estes a luz raiou.
17 Desde então começou Jesus a pregar, e a dizer: Arrependei- vos, porque é chegado o reino dos céus.
18 E Jesus, andando ao longo do mar da Galiléia, viu dois irmãos - Simão, chamado Pedro, e seu irmão André, os quais lançavam a rede ao mar, porque eram pescadores.
19 Disse-lhes: Vinde após mim, e eu vos farei pescadores de homens.
