Jean 21:13 Meaning and Commentary

John 21:13

Jesus then cometh and taketh bread
After they had taken the fish out of the net, and all was prepared for the meal, and the disciples were set down to eat, Christ came and took his place as the master of the feast, and head of the family; and taking up the bread, as was his usual method, he asked a blessing over it, and gave thanks for it. Beza's ancient copy, and one of Stephens's read, "and having given thanks he gave" which is agreeably to his usual practice at meals.

And giveth them, and fish likewise;
he distributed both bread and fish to his disciples. So, in a spiritual sense, he provides plentifully for his people; gives them to eat of the hidden manna, and tree of life, and leads to fountains of living waters; encourages them to eat and drink freely, what is of his own preparing, and at his own expense provided for them.

Jean 21:13 In-Context

11 Simon Pierre monta dans la barque, et tira à terre le filet plein de cent cinquante-trois grands poissons; et quoiqu'il y en eût tant, le filet ne se rompit point.

12 Jésus leur dit: Venez, mangez. Et aucun des disciples n'osait lui demander: Qui es-tu? sachant que c'était le Seigneur.

13 Jésus s'approcha, prit le pain, et leur en donna; il fit de même du poisson.

14 C'était déjà la troisième fois que Jésus se montrait à ses disciples depuis qu'il était ressuscité des morts.

15 Après qu'ils eurent mangé, Jésus dit à Simon Pierre: Simon, fils de Jonas, m'aimes-tu plus que ne m'aiment ceux-ci? Il lui répondit: Oui, Seigneur, tu sais que je t'aime. Jésus lui dit: Pais mes agneaux.
