Jesus Calls His First Disciples
18 Now as he[a] was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew, throwing a casting net into the sea (for they were fishermen). 19 And he said to them, “Follow me[b] and I will make you fishers of people.” 20 And immediately they left their nets and[c] followed him.
