| | 70. Christ by the Sea of Tiberius (John 21:1-14) |
 | | In the Greek, the dosing words of this verse are identical with those found at the end of John 20:14: "and [Mary] knew not that it was Jesus." She was immersed in sorrow, occupied with death, and she recognized not the Savior. |
 | | In the interval between Matthew 14 and John 21, he had basely denied his Master; but in the interval, too, and after the denial, he had heard His "Peace be unto you," and, plainly, this reassuring word had been treasured up in his heart. |
 | | John did not jump out of the ship, though he was equally devoted as Peter, nor did the other five. |
