Three miracles appear here. The fish fill the nets of Peter, John and James. "Do not fear, from now on you will be catching men." v.10
A leper is cleansed and a paralytic is healed. What I want to mention about Jesus' healings, they are different than a doctor's because they are immediate and with total wholeness. I bet that would have been such a wonder to witness.
"But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins. And no one, after drinking old wine wishes for new; for he says, 'The old is good enough'". v. 39 Luke alone adds this saying when Jesus was asked about fasting and ceremony. Jesus was talking about His fresh teaching, differing from the Old Covenant and traditions. They were hard pressed to give them up. I wanted to bring something up here: There is no mention of hell in the Old Testament. We only hear of hell from Jesus, ie, a new teaching. Just wondering why.
