Matthew 22: 34-38

³⁴Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. ³⁵One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: ^{36"Teacher,
which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" 37Jesus replied: " 'Love
the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'}^{38This is the first and greatest commandment.}John 21: 15-17

¹⁵When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me more than these?" "Yes, Lord," he said, "you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my lambs." ¹⁶Again Jesus said, "Simon son of John, do you truly love me?" He answered, "Yes, Lord, you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Take care of my sheep." ¹⁷ The third time he said to him, "Simon son of John, do you love me?" Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, "Do you love me?"

Luke 5:1-11
¹One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret,with the people crowding around him and listening to the word of God, ²he saw at the water's edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their nets. ³He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.

^{4When he had finished
speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into deep water, and let down}^{the nets for a catch."}

^{5Simon answered, "Master, we've worked hard all
night and haven't caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets."}

^{6When they had done so, they caught such a large number
of fish that their nets began to break. 7So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help
them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.}

^{8When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus' knees and said, "Go away from me, Lord;
I am a sinful man!" 9For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,
10and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon's partners.}

^{Then Jesus said to Simon, "Don't be afraid; from now on you will catch men."
11So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.}

John 21: 1-12

¹Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Tiberias.It happened this way: ²Simon Peter, Thomas (called Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. ³"I'm going out to fish," Simon Peter told them, and they said, "We'll go with you." So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.

⁴Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.

⁵He called out to them, "Friends, haven't you any fish?"
"No," they answered.

⁶He said, "Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some." When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

⁷Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, "It is the Lord," he wrapped his outer garment around him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water. ⁸The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about a hundred yards. ⁹When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there with fish on it, and some bread.

¹⁰Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish you have just caught."

¹¹Simon Peter climbed aboard and dragged the net ashore. It was full of large fish, 153, but even with so many the net was not torn. ¹²Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." None of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" They knew it was the Lord.
