Luke5:2
2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.
It is by many Interpreters thought that Luke in this History to the eleventh verse, doth but give us a larger account of what Matthew, ch. 4.18. and Mark ch. 1.16. told us shortly. The Sea of Galilee, (as they call it) and the Lake of Genazareth were both the same, receiving the different denomination from the opposite Coasts betwixt which it was. [non-Latin text not transcribed] had been better translated upon, or at, than by the Lake, for without doubt the two Ships here mentioned were upon the Water, tho possibly fastened as usually to the Shore.
