Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee,.... The same with the sea of Tiberias, Joh 6:1 , he saw Simon: whose surname was Peter, the son of Jonas:
and Andrew his brother; the brother of Simon, casting a net into the sea; of Galilee, in order to catch fish: for they were fishers: by occupation, this was their trade and business, by which they got their livelihood; See Gill on Mat 4:18 .
