9th OF April To the twelve again the fol-

enth time TO seven OF the apostles by tho 50
OF Galilee
EXPLANATORY.
l. The very morning OF the resurs
rection the angels in the tomb sent =
message by the women to whom they
appeared that the disciples were to 60
into Galilee. and Jesus would appear
TO them there Matt. $50. According
" the eleven Matt. 2s:16) went away
into Galilee, and waited for the special
appearing OF Jesus there. The place
was to be a mountain. But while watt
ing for the appointed time, seven OF
them go to the Sea Of Galilee near their
homes and the scene OF their former u
bors These seven were Peter,
Thomas, Nathaniel, James and John
and two others ". g. Peter naturally
suggests that they try their hand at
their old business of fishing, now for
two wears neglected. The seven disci-
pies toiled all night. but nota fish came
! into their nets.
4. when the morning was now
come" literally, as X. ", was now
breaking, was becoming. before tho
light was perfect. Jesus stood on the
shore" or beach, n smooth as distin-
tinguished from a rocky shore but
the disciples knew not that 1t was
Jesus"
5. .Jesus saith unto them" Chill.
dren, have We any meat?' Any fish.
The expression expects "A mega i've an
swer.
q. Cast the net on the right side OF
the ship boat and We shall find; As
they evidently saw nothing strange "
the direction TO least the net on =
right side" it is probable that they ats'
trbuted it to the stranger seeing
shoal there. Shoals can often be DIS
cerned. from the higher level of balk
or cliff, by the color Of the water. while
the fisherman may be close to the fish
without noticing them. They were
not able to draw it."
Z. THAT disciple whom Jesus loved
saith unto Peter, 1t is the Lord His
loving heart first recognized his be-
loved Lord Peter first reaches him,
casting himself impetuously into the sea.

ing to the larger one which could not
come close to the beach.
.. LAS soon then as they were come
to land, they saw a fire of Goals there:'

l And fish laid thereon, and bread" A
. simple meal. provided by jesus for Hia
Q morning repast, to which the apostles
y were invited as guests.

show any doubt by asking Him who liz
was.
