John Trapp on John 21:9

Verſe 9. And fiſh laid thereon, and bread.] A feaſt of Chriſts own providing; to aſſure them that they ſhould never want neceſſaries: ſuperfluities they may want without prejudice. Nature is content with a little, grace with leſſe. Luther dined oft with an herring, Junius with an egg; as knowing, that they were not to live to eat, but to eat to live. Ill doth it become a ſervant of the higheſt, to be a ſlave to his palate. Epicurus dum palato quid ſit optimum judicat, coeli palatium non ſuſpexit, ſaith Ennius.
