Luke 5. Jesus first disciples. James and John

How Jesus pick up the disciples?  First by showing them the miracles with similar meaning of their future mission.

Now they are fishibermen but t game eyes are going to be fishermen of mot fish but man.

Who are these first selected disciple. - James, John and Simon Peter. John here Is another John not John the Baptist.

Why Jesus did not chose the high priest?   High priest at that time did not have a good reputation. Why not a more knowledgeable person?  No idea. But it is just a Humble fishermen.

Hence,  God can make use of a man,  even though he or she is not someone special.

Luke 5:10-11 NIV
and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.”  So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.
