Fishing was very common in Egypt, not only with the net, but with the line and hook, Isaiah 19:8; and the same were used by the Israelites, for nets are often referred to, and the fish that had the piece of money in its mouth was caught with a hook. Matthew 17:27 . In Habakkuk 1:15 the same things are referred to symbolically for the catching of men for captivity. The apostles of the Lord were made fishers of men.
