 Apparently all I've just said has nothing to do with today's gospel, which is not at all about fishing or water. But actually not so. It has a lot to do with it. Because we see how this episode, and it's the episode of Jesus curing the man, the paralytic. This episode begins with a small sentence in which we're told how our Lord crossed over in a boat. And getting into a boat, he crossed over and came to his own city.
