\subsection{\John 21}
\subsubsection{\Iesous's Appearance to the Disciples in \Galilee}
\lettrine[lraise=0]{A}{fter} those [things] 
\Iesous again revealed himself to the disciples upon the sea of Tiberias; 
now he revealed himself thus:
\VS{2} There were together \Simon \Petros and \Thomas the [one] being called Didymus 
and Nathanael the [one] from Cana of \Galilee and the [sons] of \Zebedee 
and two others of his disciples. 
\VS{3} \Simon \Petros says to them: 
I go fishing. 
They say to him: 
We also come with you. 
They went out and embarked into the boat, 
and in that night they caught nothing. 

\VS{4} Now when dawn already came to pass \Iesous stood upon the shore, 
though the disciples did not know that it is \Iesous. 
\VS{5} \Iesous therefore says to them: 
Children, don't you have any fish? 
They answered him: No. 

\VS{6} So he said to them: Throw the net to the right side of the boat, 
and you will find [some]. 
They therefore threw [the net], and were not strong enough 
to pull\fnElkuo{} it [in] from the multitude of fish. 

\VS{7} The disciple whom \Iesous agape-loved therefore says to \Petros: 
It is the Lord. 
\Simon \Petros therefore having heard that it is the Lord, 
put on his outer garment, for he was naked, 
and threw himself into the sea. 
\VS{8} But the other disciples came in the boat, 
for they were not far from the land but [were about] two hundred cubits\footnote{cubit = 18 inches} [out], 
dragging the net of fish. 

\VS{9} As therefore they came to the land, they see [a] coal fire lying, 
and fish lying upon [it] and bread. 
\VS{10} \Iesous says to them: Bring some of the fish that you now caught. 
\VS{11} \Simon \Petros went up and pulled\fnElkuo{} the net onto the land full of large fish, 
one hundred fifty three\footnote{Augustine noted that 153 is a `triangular number':
1 + 2 + 3 + \dots + 17. He built a numerological reading around it:
``17 = 10 + 7, the Law plus the Spirit's gifts'' ---
the kind of patristic number-symbolism that was completely mainstream 
exegetical method at the time, even if it reads as a stretch to modern sensibilities.}. 
And being so many [fish] it didn't tear the net. 
\VS{12} \Iesous says to them: Come, eat. 
None of the disciples dared to ask him: ``Who are you?'' knowing that it is the Lord. 
\VS{13} \Iesous comes and takes the bread and gives [it] to them, and the fish likewise. 
\VS{14} This already \Iesous thrice to the disciples was revealed, 
having been raised from the dead. 

\subsubsection{\Petros's Restoration}
\VS{15} When therefore they had eaten breakfast, \Iesous says
\footnote{ Note that \Iesous asks \Petros ``do you love me?'' three times --- the same 
number of times that \Petros denied him.} 
to \Simon \Petros: 
\Simon [son] of \John, do you agape-love me more than these%
\footnote{Who `these'  are is ambiguous. The options are:
\begin{enumerate}
\item TOUTON (`these') can be understood as neuter, ``these things'', referring to the boats, nets --- being a fisherman. In other words: ``Do you agape-love me more than being a fisherman''?
\item TOUTON (`these') refers to the other disciples, meaning ``Do you agape-love me more than you love these other disciples?''
\item Or TOUTON (`these') refers to the other disciples in the sense of ``Do you agape-love me more than these other disciples do?''
\end{enumerate}
}? 
He says to them: Yes, Lord, you know that I philia-love you. 
He says to him: Be tending\fnBoskw{} my lambs. 
\VS{16} He says to him again [a] second time: 
\Simon [son] of \John, do you agape-love me? 
He says to him: Yes Lord, you know that I philia-love you. 
He says to him: Be shepherding%
\footnote{Verb form of 'sheperd' as in ``I am the good sheperd'' \myxref{\John}{10}{15}} 
my sheep.
\VS{17} He says to him the third time: 
\Simon [son] of \John, do you philia-love me? 
\Petros was grieved because he said to him the third time: 
Do you philia-love me? 
And he said to him: 
You know everything, you know that I philia-love you. 
\Iesous says to him: Be tending\fnBoskw{} my sheep.
\VS{18} Truly truly I say to you, when you were young, 
you were girding yourself and were walking [about] where you were wishing. 
But when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, 
and others will gird you and take [you] where you do not wish. 
\VS{19} Now he said this indicating by what sort of death he will glorify God. 
And having said this he says to them: Be following me. 

\subsubsection{\Petros and the Disciple \Iesous Loved}
\VS{20} \Petros turning sees the disciple whom \Iesous agape-loved following, 
who also reclined at dinner upon his breast and said: 
Lord, who is the [one] delivering you up? 
\VS{21} \Petros therefore seeing him says to \Iesous: 
Lord, but what [about] him? 
\VS{22} \Iesous says to him: 
If I wish him to be remaining until I come, what [is it] to you? 
You be following me. 
\VS{23} This word therefore went out to the brothers that this disciple will not die. 
But \Iesous did not say to him that he will not die, but: 
If I wish him to be remaining until I come, what [is it] to you? 

\subsubsection{A Final Note}
\VS{24} This is the disciple witnessing concerning these [things] 
and the [one] having written these [things], 
and we know that his witness is true. 
\VS{25} But there are also many other [things] that \Iesous did 
which if it be written in one, 
I do not suppose the world itself could hold the scrolls written.
