To eat of his body and drink of His blood is to liken Him to a lamb (sacrificial), a loaf of bread, or a fish, and a great fish at that. 100x50x3=15,000 - 30 times diminished in size to the volume of the Ark of Noah.
As Luke states; He began at 30
Many other signs therefore did Jesus in the presence of the students, which are not written in this book, but these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in his name. |
After these things Jesus became recognisable himself again to the students at the Sea of Tiberius; and he became recognisable in this way. There was together Simon Peter, and Thomas, called Didymus, and Nathaniel of Cana in Galilee, and of Zebedee, and 2 other of his students. |
Simon Peter said to them: "I'm going fishing." They say to him: "We will also come with you." They went then and entered up to the boat straightaway, and that night they caught nothing. But when dawn was now arriving, Jesus stood on the shore, yet the students did not recognize that it was Jesus. |
Jesus therefore said to them: "Children; do you have any meat ?"They answered: "No." |
And he said to them: "Thrust the netting on the right hand side of the boat, and you shall discover! "They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw off for the masses of fish. |
The student therefore, whom Yeshuah loved, said to Peter: "It is the Lord Teacher. "So when Simon Peter heard that it is the Lord Teacher, he tightly girded his garment about him for he was stark naked, and cast himself into the sea, but the other students came in the small boat for they were not far from the land, but about 200 cubits off, dragging the netting with the fish. |
So when they got out upon the land, they observed a bed of burning coals, appointed for this place and fish set up on it, and bread. Jesus said to them: "Bring of the fish which you have now captured." |
Simon Peter therefore went up, and dragged the netting to land, full of great fish, a 100 and 50 and 3 and for all there were so many, the netting was not divided. Yeshuah said to them: "Come, and eat." And none of the students dared interrogate him saying: " Who are you?" Knowing that it was the Lord Teacher. |
Yeshuah came, and took hold of the bread,
and gave them, and the fish likewise, this is now the 3rd time that Jesus was made recognisable, (at the breaking of bread), to the students, after he was risen from out of the dead. |
So when they had eaten, Yeshuah said to Simon Peter: "Simon of Jonah, do you love me more than these?" He said to him: "Yes, Lord Teacher; You know that I am fond of you." He said to him: "Feed my lambs. "He said to him again a 2nd time: "Simon of Jonah, do you love me? He said to him: "Yes, Lord Teacher; you know that I am fond of you." He said to him: "Tend my sheep." |
He said to him the 3rd time: "Simon of Jonah, are you fond of me?" And Peter was grieved because it is now the 3rd time asked if he was fond of him, and he said to him: "Lord Teacher, you have all Knowledge; you know that I am fond of you. Yeshuah said to him: "Feed my sheep." |
