Luke 5:11 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 5:11

And when they had brought their ships to land
Both Simon Peter's, and the other in which his partners were, and which were laden with fish:

they forsook all;
even all their fish, which they doubtless might have made much money of, and their nets, and their ships, and their servants, and their relations, and friends:

and followed him;
Christ; and became his disciples, even all four of them, Peter, Andrew, James, and John.

Luke 5:11 In-Context

9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the catch of fish which they had taken;
10 and so also were James and John, sons of Zeb'edee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid; henceforth you will be catching men."
11 And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.
12 While he was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy; and when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and besought him, "Lord, if you will, you can make me clean."
13 And he stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, "I will; be clean." And immediately the leprosy left him.
