Early in the morning This phrase indicates the time of day when the events of this passage occur. The Greek word used here is "πρωΐα" (proia), which refers to the early part of the day, just after dawn. This time of day is significant in Scripture, often symbolizing new beginnings and divine revelation. In the context of John 21, it suggests a fresh start for the disciples, who are about to encounter the risen Christ. The early morning light can be seen as a metaphor for the illumination and hope that Jesus brings into the lives of His followers. Jesus stood on the shore but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus The disciples knew not that it was Jesus.--Comp. John 20:14. Verse 4. - When the day was now breaking, Jesus stood on the beach. If the εἰς be thetrue reading, it would imply that he stood forth, as having come from some unperceived region. If the ἐπὶ remain, the idea is that the morning light, as it was breaking over them through the curtain of dense mist which hung before sunrise on the eastern hills, discovered Jesus standing upon the beach. There is obvious reference, in the manner of his approach, to that "standing" in the midst of them, with which they had become familiar (see John 20:14, 19, 26). Howbeit (μέντοι suggests something unusual, John 4:27; John 12:42) the disciples knew not that it was Jesus. He is not walking on the waters as of old, but standing on the solid ground. Just as Mary of Magdala, and as the disciples on the way to Emmaus, and as even the disciples themselves on the Easter night, were in doubt, at first, who and what this manifestation might mean, so now the chosen seven fail to understand that which was before their very eyes. The morning mist and shadows adding to the obscurity produced by some hundred yards of distance, together with wearied and toilsome effort and a sleepless night, may suggest some explanation of the marvel; but the mystery is baffling. Two or three remarks may be made.(1) These various appearances seem at first to confuse their perceptions by reason of the ordinary human characteristics that accompanied them. Mary for a moment mistook him for the owner or worker in the garden; the "two disciples" imagined that he was "a stranger in Jerusalem;" and these disciples think him, for the moment, to have been a stray wanderer by the lake-side. Their presupposition concerning the reappearance of their risen Lord would probably have involved some strange and awe-striking fulguration of his power; but the true "spiritual body" does, when it pleases, take on forms far more familiar. (2) The slowness of the process by which the apostles became finally convinced, against their prejudices and sense-bound views, that he had risen into a new form of living, and into new conditions of existence.
