John 21:12

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 21:12. Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine.

Or, "Come and break your fast after your long night’s toil." How they must have opened their eyes to see the fish ready cooked for them to eat!

John 21:12. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

"It was the Lord," - "the Lord" who had asked them if they had any food, "the Lord" who had filled the net which had previously been empty, "the Lord" who had given them his own fish from his own fire, that they might have breakfast with him. O good Master, if we have been toiling all the week, and have caught nothing, call us now to come and eat of that which thou hast thyself prepared!
