17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give lightupon the earth,

“After these things Jesus showed Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias, and in this way Heshowed Himself: Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee,and two others of His disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said tohim, "We are going with you also." They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night theycaught nothing. But when the morning had now come, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did notknow that it was Jesus. Then Jesus said to them, "Children, have you any food?" They answered Him, "No."And He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast, andnow they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish. Therefore that disciple whom Jesusloved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outergarment (for he had removed it), and plunged into the sea. But the other disciples came in the little boat (forthey were not far from land, but about two hundred cubits), dragging the net with fish. Then, as soon asthey had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread. Jesus said to them,"Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.“ Simon Peter went up and dragged the net to land, full oflarge fish, one hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not broken. Jesus saidto them, "Come and eat breakfast." Yet none of the disciples dared ask Him, "Who are You?" --knowing thatit was the Lord. Jesus then came and took the bread and gave it to them, and likewise the fish. This is nowthe third time Jesus showed Himself to His disciples after He was raised from the dead. So when they hadeaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?" He saidto Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Feed My lambs.“ He said to him again asecond time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You."He said to him, "Tend My sheep.“ He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?"Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, "Do you love Me?" And he said to Him, "Lord, Youknow all things; You know that I love You." Jesus said to him, "Feed My sheep.”
