After these [things] Jesus manifested
himself again to the disciples at the sea of
Tiberias; but he manifestated in this way.
2
Together were Simon
Peter
and Thomas, who was called the
Twin, and Nathanael,
the [one] from Cana of Galilee and the
[ones] of Zebedee and 2 others of his
disciples [partitive genitive].
3
Simon Peter
said to them: I am
going fishing. They said to him: We also are coming with you. Out they went and
got aboard the boat [ploion], but during that
night they caught nothing.
4
However, [upon] morning having already come, Jesus stood on the
beach, but the disciples did not, of course,
discern that it was Jesus.
5
Then Jesus said to them:
Little-children, [Paidia]
you do not have any eatables, [prosfagion]
do you? They answered No! to him.
6
He said to them: Cast on
the right parts [merh] of the
boat the net and you will find [some]. Then they cast it, but
they were no longer able to draw it in because of the multitude of the
fishes.
7
Therefore that disciple whom Jesus
used to love said to Peter: It is the Lord!
Simon therefore Peter, upon hearing
that it was the Lord, girded about himself his top-garment, for he was naked,
and plunged into the sea.
8
But the other disciples came in the
little-boat [ploiariw], for they were not
far away from land, only as [wV]
200 cubits away,
dragging the net of fishes.
9
However, when they disembarked onto
land they beheld lying there a charcoal-fire and
"eatings" [oyarion]
lying upon it and bread.
10
Jesus said to them: Bring from the eatings
[oyarion] you caught just now. [43]
11
Simon Peter, therefore, went
up and drew the net to land
[it being] full of big
fishes, [icqwn] 153 of them. But
although there were so many the net did not burst.
12
Jesus said to them: Come, breakfast you. Not one of the disciples
dared to inquire of him: Who are
you? because they knew it was the Lord.
13
Jesus came and took the bread and
gave it to them, and the eating [oyarion]
likewise.
14
This was already the 3rd [time] that
Jesus appeared to the disciples after his being raised up from the
dead [ones].

1 After these things Jesus manifested himself again to
the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; but he made the manifestation in this way.
2 There were in company Simon Peter and
Thomas, the [one] being called Twin, and
Nathanael, the [one] from Cana of the Galilee and the sons of Zebedee and
2 others of his disciples.
3 Simon Peter said to them: I am going
fishing [sounds like a 2NC saint! He is going
to do research!]. They said
to him: We also are coming with you. Out they went and got aboard the boat [ploion]
[Some kind of Independent Watchtower research
group], but
during that night they caught nothing.
4 However, just as it was getting to be of morning, Jesus
stood on the beach [Jesus is present with a
water baptism, in TCC4 after 2005Nisan30, so he is 'standing' on the sons of
the 1AC, the sand of the sea, those not in the chaotic sea and not in the land.
Beach is literal but is related to sea which is symbolic], but the disciples did not, of course, discern that it was
Jesus.
5 Then Jesus said to them: Young children, you do not have
anything to eat, do you? They answered No! to him.
6 He said to them: Cast the net on the right side of the
boat [ploion] [boat
is used as a noun, c.f. half of the boat] and you will find [some]. Then they cast it, but they were no longer able
to draw it in because of the multitude of the fishes [icquwn].
7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus used to love [Lazarus]
said to
Peter: It is the Lord! Hence Simon Peter, upon hearing that it was the Lord,
girded about himself his top garment [reprised
his priesthood], for he was naked [having
lost his previous priesthood], and plunged into the sea [left
the Watchtower, went into the world, before reaching the beach of FDS4].
8 But the other disciples came in the little boat/vessel [ploiarion], for
they were not a long way from land, but [wV] as/like from 200
cubits away [200
baptisms before the official delegation arrives a cubit being the length of a
forearm?], dragging the net
of fishes [icquwn].
9 However, when they disembarked onto land they beheld
lying there a charcoal fire and fish [oyarion] lying
at/upon it
[2NC saints, reclining at the literal barbecue]
and bread.
10 Jesus said to them: Bring [some] from the fishes [oyariwn] you just now
caught [The 2NC saints in the Watchtower].
11 Simon Peter, therefore, went on board and drew the net
to land full of great fishes [icquwn] [big
understandings], 153 [days of
bringing these into FDS4, from 2007Iyyar27/28 - 2008Tishri30, when Jesus fully
comes and starts explaining things so that we do not care about our own big fish
anymore]. But although there were so many the
net did not burst.
12 Jesus said to them: Come, take your breakfast. Not one
of the disciples had the courage to inquire of him: Who are you? because they
knew it was the Lord.
13 Jesus came and took the bread [spiritual
food from FDS2/FDS4] and gave it to them [to
eat], and
the fish [oyarion] likewise [as
their new priests].
14 This was now the 3rd time that Jesus appeared to the
disciples after his being raised up from the dead.
The account continues for the whole chapter...
Fishes [icquwn] (0), Fish [oyariwn] (3), Charcoal fire (1), Bread (2), Boat/vessel (2), Little vessel (1), cubits (1), Net (4), Sea (2), Beach (1), Morning (0/1), Night (1), Peter (9), Land (3).
The 3rd appearance to the disciples after his being raised up from the dead was the 5th appearance to humans of a total of 6 appearances of Jesus after his resurrection - see [240]. The 6 appearances sequentially represent the 6 comings of the Christ after his baptism. The correspondence is as follows:
| Appearance | Coming |
| Mary Magdalene and Mary (Jesus' mum) 33Nisan16 | Michael's entrance 29Tishri10 to appoint FDS1 33Nisan16 |
| Cleopas and friend on the road to Emmaus 33Nisan16 | Appoint FDS2 65Tishri - 69Nisan |
| The 10 apostles excluding Thomas on 33Nisan16 | Remove FDS2 ?? |
| The 11 apostles on 33Nisan24 | Appoint FDS3 1914Tishri - 1918Nisan |
| The sea of Tiberias | Remove FDS3 and appoint FDS4 1995Sivan30 - 1995Tishri17 |
| The ascension | Final revealing - 2008Iyyar29 |
Here are the two word symbolisms:
Fishes [icquwn] are interpretations
Fishes [oyariwn] are 2NC saints, reclining at the
beach barby!
Bread is spiritual food
Charcoal fire (1) is literal
Fishing Net is neural net
Peter is Obadiah of 1 Kings 18??
Jesus is Paul then Gordon
Sea is all those who are not a member of any religion
Land is FDS2 then FDS4
Beach (1) is literal to a symbolic sea. It is dependent upon the sea which is
symbolic. So it is the sons of the 1AC, those clinging to the land but not a
part of it
Small vessel (1) is literal a coach or an aeroplane or something.
200 Cubits - 200 baptisms??
The 2NC is to be held not on a literal beach but with a literal barbecue. It is the greater salvation from the red sea. The sea of the blood of enslavement to Egypt or to the Watchtower. Moses and Miriam celebrated on the beach of the gulf of Aquaba after their salvation. We celebrate Booths on Tishri15. We must have a literal barbecue of literal fish (Matthew 16:36 - feeding the 4,000) on a symbolic beach. This is the meal of the 2NC.
| Boat | Independent Watchtower research group |
| Going fishing | Trying to understand the bible. Fishing for bible interpretations. |
| Thomas the twin | Twinned with the Nethinim in the first presence |
| Nathaniel from Cana of Galilee | Water of Russell's water baptism turned into the wine, the blood of the second new covenant. They are in a boat and so dry, so no water baptism. |
| Simon Peter, Thomas, Nathaniel, The sons of Zebedee and two other disciples | 7 years of no food from 1999Elul, when the first seal was broken to 2006Elul?? |
| Night when they caught nothing until Jesus speaks | 1999Elul to 2006Elul |
| Beach | FDS4 |
| Young children | 2NC saints |
| Nothing to eat | No spiritual food |
| Fishing on the left side of the boat | Trying to interpret the bible within the confines of accepted JW teachings, such as no one can know the date of Armageddon, the bible isn't in any code, Michael's prehuman knowledge was given to Jesus the human at his baptism, Adam isn't ransomed, Jerusalem fell to Nebuchadnezzar in 607 BC etc. etc |
| Fishing on the right side of the boat | Trying to interpret the bible according to LW understandings. The word symbolism of Daniel 4 is extended to the whole bible. |
| Couldn't draw the net it due to so many fish | The were unable to mentally grasp or properly develop the new understandings into a teachable doctrine, due to their brilliance and number |
| It is the Lord | It is the work of Jesus |
| Simon Peter draws the net from the little boat to the land containing 153 big fishes | 153 days of the Queen of Sheba bringing great decoded understandings to the LWs. |
| So many fish but the net didn't burst | The Sluggish Slave saw all of these decoded understandings and did not give up on them or disseminate them. They could not or would not make them into a new teachable doctrine however leaving their old doctrine - net. But they brought them to the LWs, Queen of Sheba bringing gifts to Solomon. |
| Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them and the fish likewise | The only other time that Jesus fed only his disciples was the Last Supper. This though was the Last Breakfast! It defines the 2NC celebration in the morning of Tishri15. For there were two lambs in the constant feature, one in the morning and one in the evening. |
| 3rd time Jesus appeared to disciples after being raised from the dead | Gordon raised from the judicially dead on 1991Heshvan15. Appeared to the disciples first for 80 days between 1992Elul11 and 1992Chislev1, then secondly appeared around the memorial of 1994 and thereafter (wrote letters and went to Brooklyn several times). |
