Luke 5:9 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 5:9

Far he was astonished, and all that were with him
His brother Andrew, and the servants they had with them to manage the vessel, and cast the nets:

at the draught of the fishes they had taken;
being so large and numerous, as the like was never seen, nor known by them before.

Luke 5:9 In-Context

7 And they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come [and] help them, and they came and filled both the boats so that they began to sink.
8 And [when he] saw [it], Simon Peter fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, Lord, because I am {a sinful man}!"
9 For amazement had seized him and all those [who were] with him at the catch of fish that they had caught,
10 and so also [were] James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were business partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid! From now on you will be catching people!"
11 And [after they] brought [their] boats to the land, they left everything [and] followed him.
