Luke 5:11 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 5:11

And when they had brought their ships to land
Both Simon Peter's, and the other in which his partners were, and which were laden with fish:

they forsook all;
even all their fish, which they doubtless might have made much money of, and their nets, and their ships, and their servants, and their relations, and friends:

and followed him;
Christ; and became his disciples, even all four of them, Peter, Andrew, James, and John.

Luke 5:11 In-Context

9 For he was full of wonder and so were all those who were with him, at the number of fish which they had taken;

10 And so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were working with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Have no fear; from this time forward you will be a fisher of men.

11 And when they had got their boats to the land, they gave up everything and went after him.

12 And it came about that while he was in one of the towns, there was a leper there: and when he saw Jesus he went down on his face in prayer to him, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean.

13 And he put out his hand to him and said, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away his disease went from him.
