1: μετα ταυτα εφανερωσεν εαυτον παλιν ο ιησους τοις μαθηταις επι της θαλασσης της τιβεριαδος εφανερωσεν δε ουτως— edit Textus Receptus
1: After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.- edit KJV text
1: After this, Jesus shewed himself to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And he shewed himself after this manner.— edit Douay text


The sea of Tiberias. Called also the Sea of Galilee, being situated in Galilee. See "Mt 4:18".

In this place Jesus had promised to meet them, Mk 14:28, Mk 16:7 Mt 26:32, Mt 28:10.

This interview of Jesus is but just mentioned by Matthew (Mt 28:16), and is omitted by both Mark and Luke. This is the reason why John relates so particularly what occurred there. Galilee was a retired place where they would be free from danger, and was therefore a safe and convenient situation for Jesus to meet them, in order to give them his last instructions.

On this wise. Thus. In this manner.
