And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon,
Fear not; from now on you shall catch men.

Jesus Christ answers the thought of St. Peter, that instead of any loss or evil coming to him, he should, on the contrary, receive a great reward, by being appointed a fisher of men; and, as he had taken so many fishes by the divine assistance, so he should take in his net innumerable souls, not so much by his own industry, as by the divine grace and assistance. (Maldonatus)
