Answering Deep Draught Fishes Master Miracles Nets Simon Testament
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time to the shores of the Sea of Galilee, where the biblical tale of the Draught of Fishes unfolds. In this scene, the Apostle Simon Peter, played by the distinguished actor Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Gorham Davis, stands at the helm of a traditional Galilean fishing boat. His fellow fishermen, including Saint Andrew and Saint James, are shown in the background, busily mending their nets. The serene waters of the lake reflect the gentle light of the rising sun, as the fishermen prepare for another day on the water. But their hopes for a productive catch are waning, as they have yet to reel in a single fish. Suddenly, Jesus of Nazareth, portrayed by the renowned actor Basil Rathbone, appears on the shore. He calls out to Simon, urging him to 'launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a draught.' Despite their initial skepticism, the fishermen heed Jesus' advice and cast their nets once more. The resulting catch is nothing short of miraculous. The nets are soon filled to the brim with an abundance of fish, stretching out in every direction. In awe of this extraordinary event, Peter falls to his knees and exclaims, 'Master, we have taken nothing, but at Your word we will let down the nets.' This powerful image captures the essence of the biblical story, as well as the rich historical and religious significance of the event. The Draught of Fishes is not only a testament to the miraculous power of Jesus, but also a reminder of the importance of faith, perseverance, and obedience.
