The study of the Bible in its historical context - with a focus on the archaeology, history, geography, customs , culture, and even the languages of the ancient Middle East. WE ask what did they understand THEN - the original intent of the Lord - so that we can expand and enrich our understanding NOW and thus become true disciples of Adonai Yeshua as in John 8:31-32.

Five Small Stones - Episode 17 Part 2
(Here's the link for part 1. Please watch part 1 to get the full understanding of the amazing events in Luke 5:1-11.

In part 1 we visited the Cove of the Parables. It is the likely place Jesus went out in Peter's boat and spoke to the crowds. You can see a picture below of the location of the cove to the ancient city of Capernuam.
I recommend a cool video that that even adds more to our understanding of the cove of the parables. A sound experiment is actually done in the video to show that this place is a place where one can speak to many many people.

After Jesus spoke to the crowds we read the following ...
When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, "Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch." Simon answered and said, "Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing, but I will do as You say and let down the nets." When they had done this, they enclosed a great quantity of fish, and their nets began to break; so they signaled to their partners in the other boat for them to come and help them. And they came and filled both of the boats, so that they began to sink. (Luk 5:4-7)
This is what many of us term the "miraculous catch." It isn't miraculous! No way.
It is beyond miraculous.
It is unexplainable and beyond imagination. So what is the real story behind all this? What is going on? What does this do to our understanding of the events and Jesus? Who is Jesus?
Come and join us as we dig deeper into the story and its historical context.

FIVE SMALL STONES EPISODE 17 PART 1
There's only one location and only one on the shores of the Sea of Galilee where Jesus could get into a boat and talk to a huge crowd. On top of that Jesus then "thanks" Peter for helping Him by giving Peter a catch of fish that is beyond imagination.
What is the real story? What's behind all this? Is there more to this story? Yes. We did not live then. Most of us don't fish with nets as Peter did. Once again we need to put the Bible into its historical context and hear what they heard and see what they saw and understand how they understood and then our understanding of the text of God's word is enhanced, expanded and deepen. Come and join us and let's head out to the northern shores of the Sea of Galilee; come let us go and let the Lord teach us who He is and what He is like.
