Jesus telling Peter and Andrew where to find fish.

Jesus' First Fishing Miracle

Jesus performed at least two fishing miracles... at least we know of two fishing miracles.  Both involved Peter and his brother Andrew.  The first time Jesus asked Peter to push his boat shallowly just offshore so He, Jesus, could teach the people from the boat.  The next time Peter and Andrew were out fishing after Jesus' resurrection.  In both cases Jesus told them where to toss the net for a massive catch. In both cases the brothers were on the Sea of Galilee or Sea of Tiberius if you were Roman.  The lake was also called the Lake of Gennesaret.  Genneseret was also the name for the western shore area of the inland sea or lake. 

Did you notice the birds in this drawing?  They are all native birds to the Sea of Galilee area.  The dove near Jesus is a Turtle Dove.  The gull on the right is a Baltic Gull.  There is a Black-headed Gull to the right of the closer boat.  The smaller gull in the distance near the further boat is also a Black-headed Gull.  The gull in the foreground is a Herring Gull.
