The context of this passage

This showed that Jesus did not only care about their souls but their bodies as well (Willmington,2018). By this, the disciples furnished the part of the meal which they were to eat. The disciples and Jesus coming together and eating together showed love.
What do you think the disciples were thinking throughout their experience with Jesus?
The disciples were amazed by everything that happened. It is said that they had toiled overnight and could not find any fish; at Jesus word, they cast their net and really had a big catch. They were able to know that it was Jesus (Willmington, 2018). The disciples were thinking of why Jesus had chosen to visit them and not anybody else. This would have made them feel special as Jesus even invited them to eat together with him. Jesus loved and cared about them.
