Gospel Parables

14. Parables of Fishing Net

This is the livelihood of the people of Galilee who live around the lake. The parable shows the end of a day of work.
The fishermen go fishing with only one purpose: to cast the net and to catch a great number of fish, to haul the net ashore and to choose the good fish to take home and to throw away those that are no good.
