『彼得爱主』Peter, Do you love Me?

约翰福音 John 21:15-19

• v15 他们吃完了早饭，耶稣对西门 彼得说：约翰的儿子西门，你爱我比这些更深麽？
• v15 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?”

彼得重回到海上打鱼，但整晚一条鱼也打不到 Peter went back to the sea, but caught nothing throughout the night.

耶稣说：把网撒在船的右边。捕到 153 条鱼。Jesus said: “Throw your net on the right side of the boat.” They caught 153 fish.

• v15 …耶稣对西门彼得说：约翰的儿子西门，你爱我比这些更深麽？
• v15 …Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Do you love me more than these?”

[这些]指的是什么？“These” refers to…

•  渔船、渔网和鱼the boat, the net and the fish;
•  其他回到海上捕鱼的门徒the disciples who followed Peter.

耶稣连续三次问彼得：『你爱我么？』Jesus asked Peter three times: “Do you love me”?

彼得曾经三次否认主Peter denied Christ three times

彼得『答非所问』Peter had not really answered Jesus’ questions.
