Marcos 1

Marcos 1:17

[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] For by the net of holy preaching they drew fish, that is, men, from the depths of the sea, that is, of infidelity, to the light of faith. Wonderful indeed is this fishing! for fishes when they are caught, soon after die; when men are caught by the word of preaching, they rather are made alive. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
