Matthew 4:17-22
Sea of Galilee; called also the sea of Tiberias and the lake of Gennesareth; about thirteen miles long, and from six to nine miles wide: through it runs the Jordan. Those who are diligent in appropriate business are preparing for increased usefulness. From them Christ often selects his ministers; and he can so influence them, that they will forsake all and follow him. Fishers of men; the means of taking them out of the kingdom of Satan, and bringing them into the kingdom of Christ.Acts 1:21-22
From the baptism of John; the time when Christ entered on the duties of his public ministry.
