Contextual Overview

1 It came to passe, yt the people preassed vpon him to heare the worde of God, and he stode by the lake of Genazereth, 2 and sawe two shippes stode by ye lake syde, but ye fishers were gone out of the, and had wasshed their nettes. 3 Then wente he in to one of the shippes, which was Symons, and prayed him, yt he wolde thrust out a litle fro the londe. And he sat him downe, and taught the people out of ye shippe. 4 And whan he had left of talkynge, he sayde vnto Symon: Launch out in to the depe & let slyppe yor nettes, to make a draught. 5 And Symon answered and sayde vnto him: Master, we haue laboured all ye night, and taken nothinge. But vpo thy worde, I wil lowse forth the nett. 6 And wha they had so done, they toke a greate multitude of fisshes, & their net brake. 7 And they made sygnes to their felowes which were in ye other shippe, yt they shulde come, & helpe the. And they came, & fylled both the shippes full, so yt they soncke. 8 Whan Symon Peter sawe yt, he fell downe at Iesus knees, & sayde: LORDE, go 9 fro me, for I am a synfull man: For he was astonnyed and all that were wt him, at this draught of fishes which they toke, 10 and so were Iames and Ihon also the sonnes of Zebede, which were Symons companyons. And Iesus sayde vnto Symo: Feare not, for fro hence forth thou shalt take men.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now when he had left speaking,.... Teaching the people, and preaching the word of God unto them out of the ship, as they stood on the shore before him.

He said unto Simon, launch out into the deep; he spoke to Simon Peter, being the master of the vessel, to thrust it out, or put it off further into deep water, more convenient for fishing;

and let down your nets for a draught; of fishes: his meaning is, that he would give orders to his servants, to put out the vessel to sea, to take their nets and cast them into the sea, in order to take and draw up a quantity of fish, which was their business.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Launch, out - Go out with your vessels.

Into the deep - Into the sea; at a distance from the shore.

For a draught - A draught of fish; or let down your nets for the “taking” of fish.
