Lukas 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.

Lukas 5:9 In-Context

7 And they signaled for their shuttafim (partners) in the other sirah to come and help them. And they came and they filled both sirot (boats) so much that they began to sink.
8 And having seen this, Shimon Kefa fell down before Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, saying, Depart from me, Adoni, for an ish choteh (sinful man) am I. [BERESHIS 18:27; IYOV 42:6; YESHAYAH 6:5]
9 For astonishment seized Shimon Kefa and all the ones with him on account of the catch of dagim which they took;
10 And likewise also Yaakov and Yochanan the banim of Zavdai, who were business shuttafim (partners) with Shimon. And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to Shimon, Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch bnei Adam.
11 And having left behind the sirot on the shore, they forsook all, and followed him [as talmidim].
