Luke5:6
Their net brake. Or their net began, to break, or was about to break. This is all that is implied in the Greek word. If their nets had actually broken, as our English word seems to suppose, the fish would have escaped; but no more is meant than that there was such a multitude of fishes that their net was on the point of being rent asunder.
