Matthew Poole and continuators on John 21:7

7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved, saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Pe[illegible: 1 letter]er heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fishers coat unto him, (for he was naked) and did cast himself into the sea .

There is a great dispute amongst Critical Writers, what this fishers coat was; whether a loose coa[illegible: 1 letter]; or the garment next his skin, or a Fisherman-slops; it is a point not worth the disputing; it was some garment that might modestly cover him when he came to Jesus, and yet not hinder him in his Swimming.
