John 21 — Context

7

So the disciple who was dear to Jesus said to Peter, It is the Lord! Hearing that it was the Lord, Peter put his coat round him (because he was not clothed) and went into the sea.

8

And the other disciples came in the little boat (they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits off) pulling the net full of fish.

9

When they got to land, they saw a fire of coals there, with fish cooking on it, and bread.

10

Jesus said to them, Get some of the fish which you have now taken.

11

So Peter went to the boat and came back pulling the net to land, full of great fish, a hundred and fifty-three; and though there was such a number the net was not broken.

12

Jesus said to them, Come and take some food. And all the disciples were in fear of putting the question, Who are you? being conscious that it was the Lord.

13

Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the fish in the same way.
