Mattityahu 4:22 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 4:22

And they immediately left the ship
More is expressed here than before, for they not only left their nets, but their ship too; which was of much more value; nay, even "their father" also, "with the hired servants", ( Mark 1:20 ) and so complied with the call of Christ to his people, ( Psalms 45:10 ) and thereby proved, that they were sincerely his followers, ( Luke 14:26 ) and might expect the gracious promise of Christ to be made good unto them, ( Matthew 19:28 Matthew 19:29 ) .

Mattityahu 4:22 In-Context

20 And immediately, leaving their nets, they followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.

21 And having gone on from there, he saw two other achim, Yaakov Ben Zavdai and Yochanan his brother, in the sirah (boat) with Zavdai their father, repairing their nets, and he summoned them.

22 Immediately, leaving the sirah (boat) and their father, they followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach [Mt 19:29].

23 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went about in all the Galil, exercising the ministry of moreh (teacher) in their shuls and of darshan (preacher) of the Besuroh Tovoh (Good Tiding of a Joyous Event), the Besuras HaGeulah (the Good News of Redemption) of the Malchut Hashem, and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went about bringing refuah (healing) to every disease and every illness of the people.

24 And the report went out about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach throughout all Syria; and they brought to him all the cholim (sick) with various illnesses and machalot, demoniacs, epileptics, and paralytics; and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach brought them refuah.
