In accordance with the command of Jesus Christ, His disciples went to Galilee. There the eyes were busy with their everyday affairs. One day, Peter, Thomas, Nathanael (Bartholomew), the sons of Zebedee (James and John) and two other of His disciples were fishing all night in the Sea of Tiberias (Lake of Gennesaret) and caught nothing. And when morning came, Jesus Christ was standing on the shore. But the disciples did not recognize Him.

Jesus Christ said to them: "Children! Do you have any food?"

They said, "No."

Then Jesus Christ said to them: "Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will catch."

The disciples threw the net on the right side of the boat and could no longer pull it out of the water because of the multitude of fish.

Then John said to Peter, "This is the Lord."

Peter, hearing that it was the Lord, girded himself with a garment, because he was naked, and threw himself into the sea, and swam to the shore, to Jesus Christ. And the other disciples sailed in a boat, dragging a net with fish behind them, since they were not far from the shore. When they came ashore, they saw a lit fire and fish and bread lying on it.

Jesus Christ says to the disciples: "Bring the fish that you have now caught."

Peter went and pulled out a net on the ground, filled with large fish, of which there were one hundred and fifty-three; And with such a multitude, the net did not break.

After that, Jesus Christ said to them: "Come, dine."

And none of the disciples dared to ask Him, "Who art Thou?" knowing that it was the Lord.

Jesus Christ took bread and gave them fish as well.

During dinner, Jesus Christ showed Peter that He forgave his denial and raised him again to the rank of His apostle. Peter, by his denial, sinned more than the other disciples, so the Lord asked him: "Simon Jonah! Do you love Me more than they (the other disciples)?"

Peter answered Him, "Yes, Lord, Thou knowest that I love Thee."
