THE MESSAGE
Push Out into Deep Water Once when he was standing on the shore of Lake Gennesaret, the crowd was pushing in on him to better hear the Word of God. He noticed two boats tied up. The fishermen had just left them and were out scrubbing their nets. He climbed into the boat that was Simon's and asked him to put out a little from the shore. Sitting there, using the boat for a pulpit, he taught the crowd. When he finished teaching, he said to Simon, "Push out into deep water and let your nets out for a catch." Simon said, "Master, we've been fishing hard all night and haven't caught even a minnow. But if you say so, I'll let out the nets." It was no sooner said than done—a huge haul of fish, straining the nets past capacity. They waved to their partners in the other boat to come help them. They filled both boats, nearly swamping them with the catch. Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell to his knees before Jesus. "Master, leave. I'm a sinner and can't handle this holiness. Leave me to myself." When they pulled in that catch of fish, awe overwhelmed Simon and everyone with him. It was the same with James and John, Zebedee's sons, coworkers with Simon. Jesus said to Simon, "There is nothing to fear. From now on you'll be fishing for men and women." They pulled their boats up on the beach, left them, nets and all, and followed him.

Contextual Overview
1 And it occurred, that a multitude gathered about him, to hear the word of God. And he was standing by the side of the sea of Gennesaret, 2 and he saw two ships standing near the sea, and the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. 3 And one of them belonged to Simon Cephas: and Jesus entered and sat in it. And he told them to draw off a little from the shore, into the sea: and he seated himself, and taught the multitude from the ship. 4 And when he ceased from speaking, he said to Simon: Launch out into the deep, and cast your net for a draught. 5 Simon answered, and said to him: Rabbi, all the night we have toiled, and have caught nothing: but, at thy bidding, I will cast the net. 6 And when they had done so, they inclosed very many fishes, so that the net was rent. 7 And they made signs to their associates, in the other ship, to come and help them. And when they came, they filled both the ships, so that they were near to sinking. 8 And when Simon Cephas saw [fn] , he fell before the feet of Jesus, and said to him: I beseech thee, my Lord, that thou leave me, for I am a sinful man. 9 For astonishment had seized him, and all that were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had caught: 10 and in like manner also James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners of Simon. But Jesus said: Fear thou not; henceforth thou shalt catch men unto life.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when they had brought their ships to land,.... Both Simon Peter's, and the other in which his partners were, and which were laden with fish:
they forsook all; even all their fish, which they doubtless might have made much money of, and their nets, and their ships, and their servants, and their relations, and friends:
and followed him; Christ; and became his disciples, even all four of them, Peter, Andrew, James, and John.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Forsook all - It was not “much” that they left - a couple of small boats and their nets; but it was all they had, even all their living. But this showed their love of Jesus, and their willingness to deny themselves, as “really” as if they had forsaken palaces and gold. All that Jesus asks is that we should leave “all” we have for him; that we should love him “more” than we do whatever friends or property we may possess, and be willing to give them all up when he requires it.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 5:11. They forsook all, and followed him. — God expects this from every person, and especially from those in whose hearts, or in whose behalf, he has wrought a miracle of grace or of providence. Jesus intended to call Peter, James, and John, to become his disciples; and that they might see the propriety and importance of the call, he: -
1st. TEACHES in their presence, that they may know his doctrine.
2dly. He WORKS a MIRACLE before their eyes, that they might see and be convinced of his power.
3dly. He CALLS them to go forth with this doctrine, and through this power, that they might teach the ignorant, and be successful in their work.
