Context — The Calling of the First Disciplesgenerated
Luke 5:2 describes Jesus observing two boats at the edge of the lake while fishermen were washing their nets. This moment precedes His calling of the disciples, illustrating the everyday life of those who would become His followers. The narrative highlights the ordinary activities of fishing, which Jesus transforms into a call to a greater purpose, as He later instructs Simon Peter to let down his nets for a catch.

The Key Word — ἵστημι, histēmigenerated
The word ἑστῶτα is a perfect active participle of ἵστημι, meaning 'to stand' or 'to be placed.' Here, it indicates that the boats are already lying at the shore, emphasizing their readiness for use.
This participle conveys a state of being that is completed, suggesting that the boats are not just present but are positioned for a purpose, ready for the fishermen's next actions.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the verse reads: 'He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.' This is consistent across many translations.
However, some translations differ in their choice of words. For instance, ASV and KJV use 'ships' instead of 'boats,' while YLT translates 'beside the lake' instead of 'at the edge of the lake.'
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is εἶδεν, He saw, which governs the entire sentence. It is followed by a noun phrase, δύο πλοῖα, two boats, and a prepositional phrase indicating their location, παρὰ τὴν λίμνην, by the lake.
The structure includes additional clauses that describe the fishermen's actions, with the participial phrase ἀποβάντες, having gone out, and the verb phrase ἔπλυνον, were washing, providing details about their activities.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
πλοῖον appears in the Septuagint as a translation for Hebrew terms related to ships and vessels, often used in contexts of travel or fishing.
The term ἑστῶτα also has roots in the Septuagint, reflecting a similar sense of being placed or positioned, which can be seen in various contexts.

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Bede comments on the significance of the two boats and the fishermen's actions, using this verse to illustrate deeper theological points about Jesus' ministry.
And He saw two boats standing by the lake. The two boats placed by the lake symbolize the circumcision and the foreskin. It is well said that Jesus saw them, for the Lord knows who are His in both peoples.Early Church Fathers on Luke 5 →

Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(2) Two ships.—Better, boats, or little ships, the Greek word being a diminutive, as in John 6:23. The narrative implies that they were the boats respectively of Jonas, the father of Peter and Andrew, and of Zebedee. Washing their nets.—There is a slight, but noticeable variation here, from the “mending their nets” in St. Matthew and St. Mark. The process implied that having fished fruitlessly during the night, they were now giving up the work, and cleaning their nets from weeds, etc., before laying them up. On the assumption that the two narratives refer to the same event, some have seen in the “mending,” a confirmation of the statement in St. Luke that the “nets brake.” The Note on Luke…

AdamClarkeAdam Clarke's Commentary on the BibleVerse 2. Two ships] δυοπλοια, Two vessels, It is highly improper to term these ships. They appear to have been only such small boats as are used to manage nets on flat smooth beaches: one end of the net is attached to the shore; the fishermen row out, and drop the net as they go, making a kind of semicircle from the shore; they return, and bring the rope attached to the other end with them, and then the net is hauled on shore; and, as it was sunk with weights to the bottom, and floated with corks at the top, all the fish in that compass were included, and drawn to shore.

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Et vidit duas naves stantes secus stagnum : piscatores autem descenderant, et lavabant retia.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word οἶδα (i.e., *oida*) is derived from the root of εἶδον (i.e., *eidon*), meaning 'to see' or 'to perceive.' It primarily conveys the idea of knowing or having knowledge, often used in contexts where one has seen or understood something. The New Testament employs it in various constructions, indicating knowledge of things, people, or concepts.

Egyptian saws, so far as has yet been discovered, are single-handed. As is the case in modern Oriental saws, the teeth usually incline toward the handle, instead of away from it like ours. They have, in most cases, bronze blades, apparently attached to the handles by leathern thongs. No evidence exists of the use of the saw applied to stone in Egypt, but we read of sawn stones used in the temple. (1 Kings 7:9) The saws "under" or "in" which David is said to have placed his captives were of iron. The expression in (2 Samuel 12:31) does not necessarily imply torture, but the word "cut" in (1 Chronicles 20:3) can hardly be understood otherwise.

δύο is a numeral meaning 'two,' used in various contexts throughout the New Testament, such as in Matthew 19:6 and Mark 10:8. It can appear with plural nouns and in phrases like 'two and two' or 'into two parts.' The word is indeclinable in most uses, although it has forms in the genitive and dative cases. Some entries note its usage in both classical and Hellenistic Greek.

The Greek word πλοῖον (ploion) refers to a vessel or ship, derived from the verb meaning 'to sail.' It encompasses various types of boats, including merchant ships and small craft, and is frequently used in the New Testament, notably in Matthew 4:21-22 and Acts 21:2-3. The term has historical usage in classical literature as well.

παρά is a preposition that conveys the idea of proximity, meaning 'beside' or 'from the side of.' It can take the genitive, dative, or accusative case, indicating source, location, or motion towards something. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts involving relationships, such as 'his family' (Mk 3:21) or 'from God' (Jn 9:16). The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its usage.

PREP PREPosition
In the sense of "against" which survives only in dialectal English (compare Wright, Dialect Dict., I, 470, for examples) is the King James Version rendering of the dative emauto of 1Co 4:4 (the American Standard Revised Version renders this "against"). In classical Greek the same idiom sunoida with dative = "be conscious" or "be cognizant of" a thing.
By
In the expression “by myself” (A.V., 1 Cor. 4:4), means, as rendered in the Revised Version, “against myself.”

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

λίμνη is a feminine noun meaning 'lake' or 'pond,' derived from the root meaning 'to pour out.' It refers to bodies of standing water, including the Sea of Galilee in the New Testament (e.g., Luke 5:1). The term can also denote marshy areas or artificial pools. Notably, it appears in various contexts, including classical literature and inscriptions.
λίμνη, -ns, ἡ, (fr. λείβω to pour, pour out [cf. Curtius § 541]), [fr. Hom. down], a lake: Δ. Τεννησαρέτ [q, v-], Lk. v. 1; absol., of the same, Lk. v. 2; viii. 22 sq. 33; τοῦ πυρός, Rey. xix. 20; xx. 10, 14 sq.; καιομένη πυρί, Rey. xxi. 8.

In an ostracon letter of A.D. 192, published by Deissmann AZ p. 186, instructions are given that certain quantities of wheat are to be delivered to “ec two ‘husbandmen of the lake ””—yewpyots λίμνης, whose | homes are in the village of Phmau (ἀπὸ ®pad: cf. Heb 1374 | οἱ ἀπὸ τῆς ᾿Ιταλίας, where Deissmann thinks the reference is to people zz Italy). See for the same ostracon Meyer Os¢r. p. 176 f., where the editor identifies this λίμνη with Birket

lak (limne): The word is used (Lu 5:1,2; 8:22,23,33) of the Lake of Gennesaret or Sea of Galilee, and (Re 19:20; 20:10,14,15; 21:8) of the "lake of fire and brimstone." Lakes are not abundant in Syria and Palestine. The Dead Sea, which might be called a lake, is in most places in English Versions of the Bible called the Salt Sea. It is called by the Arabs Bachr Lut, Sea of Lot. It is a question whether the Waters of Merom (Jos 11:5,7) can be identified with the Chuleh, a marshy lake in the course of the Upper Jordan, North of the Sea of Galilee. East of Damascus on the edge of the desert there are saltish lakes in which the water of the rivers of Damascus (see 2Ki 5:12) is…
See MEROM and SEA. That most terrible description of hell, as a lake burning with fire and brimstone, Re 19:20 21:8, recalls the fire and sea in which Sodom was consumed and swallowed up.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

δέ (related to δή, as μέν to μήν, ef. Klotz ad Devar. ii. 2 p. 355), a particle adversative, distinctive, disjunctive, but, moreover, (W.§ 53, 7 and 10, 2); it is much more freq. in the historical parts of the N.

The Greek word ἁλιεύς (transliterated as halieus) means 'fisherman' and is derived from the root related to the sea (ἅλς). It appears in the New Testament in contexts referring to Jesus calling his disciples, who were fishermen. The entries consistently define it as someone who works with the sea, covering both fishermen and sailors.

ἁλιεύς. The word is too common in itself to need illustrating, unless we recorded the appearance of the epithet ποτάμιος to indicate a fisherman who exercised his calling on the Nile. It is, however, a good example of the rule by which in Hellenistic of the second period (ἡ e. A.D.) two z-sounds are not allowed to come together: see Pro/eg.* p. 44 f. In this one case, in the nom. and accus. pl. of ἁλιεύς, dissimilation instead of contraction has taken place: aAeets occurs in NT and in P Flor I. 127} (a.p. 256), but note 119? aAt[ets and 275°, from the same correspondence, and BGU IV. 1035° (v/a.D.).

The Greek word ἀπό (transliterated as apo) is a preposition meaning 'from' or 'away from,' typically used with the genitive case. It covers a wide range of meanings, including separation, origin, and partitive sense, as well as indicating distance in time or place. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as indicating motion from a place or the source of something. The entries do not show significant disagreement.

ἀπό, [fr. Hom. down], preposition with the Genitive, (Lat. a, ab, abs, Germ. von, ab, weg, [ef. Eng. of, off ]), Jrom, signifying now Separation, now Origin. On its use in the N.

[On the neglect of elision before words beginning with a vowel see Τὰ Proleg. p. 94; cf. W. § 5,1a.; B. p.10sq.; WH.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25.

The Greek word ἀποβαίνω (*apobaino*) is composed of the prefix ἀπο- meaning 'away from' and a root related to 'to step.' It primarily means to disembark or step off, but can also refer to the outcome or result of events. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts like disembarking from a ship (Lk 5:2, Jn 21:9) and metaphorically describing events turning out (Lk 21:13, Phil 1:19).
ἀπο-βαίνω: fut. ἀποβήσομαι; 2 aor. ἀπέβην: 1. to come down from: a ship (so even in Hom.), ἀπό. Lk. v. 2 (Tr mre. br. az αὐτῶν]: εἰς τὴν γῆν, In. xxi. 9. 2. trop. fo turn out, ‘eventuate,’ (so fr. Hdt. down): ἀποβήσεται ὑμῖν εἰς μαρτύριον it will issue, turn out, Lk. xxi. 13; εἰς σωτηρίαν, Phil. i. 19. (Job xiii. 16 ; Artem. oneir. 3, 66.)
ἀποβαίνω. For the metaphorical sense (as in Lk 2118, Phil 119) cf. P Petr III. 42 H (8) f® (iii/B.c.) (= Witkowski?, p. 15) νυνὶ [δὲ ἐν φόβωι clipl οὐ μετρίωι, wa[s] Te col ἀποβήσεται καὶ ἡμῖν.

The literal sense may be illustrated by the use of the verb, with its nouns ἀπόβασις and ἀποβατικόν, to denote a kind of chariot race in which one of two men in a car had to jump off: see Sy// 670 (i/ii A.D.) and notes.

The Greek word πλύνω (i.e., *plunō*) means 'to wash,' primarily referring to inanimate objects like clothing. It is used in the New Testament, notably in Luke 5:2 and Revelation 7:14, where it conveys both literal and figurative meanings of cleansing. The entries suggest that it is distinct from other terms for washing, such as νίπτω and λούω, which pertain to washing living beings.
THERE is a certain poverty in English, which has one only word, ‘to wash,’ with which to render these three Greek ; seeing that the three have each a propriety of its own, and one which the inspired writers always observe. Thus πλύνειν is always to wash inanimate things, as distinguished from living objects or persons ; oftenest garments (εἵματα, Homer, Il, xxii. Sxtv- SVVONVMS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. τοὶ 155; ἱμάτιον, Plato, Charm. 161 e; and in the Septuagint ᾿ continually ; so στολάς, Rev. vii. 14); but not exclusively garments, as some affirm, for see Luke v. 2, where it expresses the washing or cleansing of nets (δίκτυα : cf. Polybius ix. 6, 8). When David exclaims Πλῦνόν pe ἀπὸ τῆς ἀνομίας Ps. 1. 8 [li. 2, A. V.]), this is no exception to the rule; forthe mention of hyssop, which follows, shows plainly that the royal penitent had the ceremonial aspersions of the Levitical law…

— Washing
(Mark 7:1-9). The Jews, like other Orientals, used their fingers when taking food, and therefore washed their hands before doing so, for the sake of cleanliness. Here the reference is to the ablutions prescribed by tradition, according to which “the disciples ought to have gone down to the side of the lake, washed their hands thoroughly, ‘rubbing the fist of one hand in the hollow of the other, then placed the ten finger-tips together, holding the hands up, so that any surplus water might flow down to the elbow, and thence to the ground.’” To neglect to do this had come to be regarded as a great sin, a sin equal to the breach of any of the ten commandments. Moses had commanded washings oft, but always for some definite cause; but the Jews multiplied the legal observance till they formed a large body of precepts. To such…
Various ceremonial washings were enjoined in the Mosaic law, both upon priests, Ex 30:19-21, and upon others, Le 12:1; 15:33 Heb 9:10.
These were significant of spiritual purification through the Savior’s blood, Tit 3:5 Re 1:5, as well as of that holiness without which none can see God. To these the Jews added other traditional ablutions, Mr 7:2-4; and regarded it as an act of impiety to neglect them, as Christ frequently did, Lu 11:38. The washing of the hands before and after meals,

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

Is but a barb'rous skill.

δίκτυον is a neuter noun meaning 'net,' particularly a fishing net. It is derived from a verb meaning 'to cast.' The term appears in several New Testament passages, including Matthew 4:20 and John 21:6. Lexicons note that it can refer to various types of nets, including hunting nets, and is often used metaphorically. There is some discussion about its specific types compared to related words like ἀμφίβληστρον and σαγήνη, which denote specific fishing nets.
Ovr English word ‘net’ will, in a general way, cover all these three, which yet are capable of a more accurate discrimination one from the other. Aixrvov (=‘rete,’ “ retia’), from the old δικεῖν, to cast, which appears again in δίσκος, a quoit, is the more general name for all nets, and would include the hunting net, and the net with which birds are taken (Prov. i. 17), as well as the fishing, although used only of the latter in the Ν, T. (Matt. iv. 20; John xxi. 6). It is often in the Septuagint employed in that figurative sense in which St. Paul uses παγίς (Rom. xi. 9; 1 Tim. iii. 7), and is indeed associated with it (Job xviii. 8; Prov. xxix. 5). ᾿Αμφίβληστρον and σαγήνη are varieties of fishing nets ; they are named together, Hab. i. 15; and in Plutarch (De Soler. Anim. 26), who joins γρῖπος with σαγήνη, ὑποχή with ἀμφίβληστρον. ᾿Αμφίβληστρον--- οὐ only in the N. T. at Matt. iv. 18…

δίκτυον. A Christian epitaph from Aegina, makes the departed rejoice because Kaibel 421 (2?v/a.p.) δίκτυα λυγρὰ καὶ γοερὰς παγίδας προὔφυγον ἀμπλακίης. This is of course purely literary, but between Epictetus and the Gospels we may be sure of vernacular warranty. Moreover it survives in MGr δίχτυ.

Counted over the 14 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.
τῶν γὰρ εἰς γνήσιον κάλλος οὐδὲν οἰκεῖον ἐξ ἑαυτῆς ἐπιφέρεται, περιῆπται δὲ δίκτυα καὶ πάγας ἐπὶ τῇ σῇ θήρᾳ, νόθην καὶ κίβδηλον εὐμορφίαν, ἃ προϊδόμενος, ἢν εὖ φρονήσῃς, ἀτελῆ τὴν ἄγραν αὐτῇ παρασκευάσεις·
χωνευτὸν δʼ ἐφʼ ἑκατέρᾳ κεφαλῇ κρίνον ἐφειστήκει τὸ ὕψος ἐπὶ πέντε πήχεις ἐγηγερμένον, ᾧ περιέκειτο δίκτυον ἐλάτῃ χαλκέᾳ περιπεπλεγμένον καλύπτον τὰ κρίνα.
λέγει δὲ ἡ γραφή: Οὐκ ἀδίκως ἐκτείνεται δίκτυα πτερωτοῖς.
