john 21:5 Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No.

john 21:5 Jesus therefore said to them, "Children, you do not have any fish, do you?" They answered Him, "No."

5. Children--This term would not necessarily identify Him, being not unusual from any superior; but when they did recognize Him, they would feel it sweetly like Himself.
have ye any meat?--provisions, supplies, meaning fish.
They answered . . . No--This was in His wonted style, making them tell their case, and so the better prepare them for what was coming.

john 21:5 Jesus therefore said to them, "Children, you do not have any fish, do you?" They answered Him, "No."
