Possibly it was a result of the beatings He endured at the cross, the scars of which remained at least in part. Jesus then came and took the bread: Jesus is often seen eating with His disciples after His resurrection. This is a picture of intimate, friendly fellowship.
Full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three: This number has been a field day for speculative interpretations of the Bible since the early church. Some like Augustine say that it is a number representing the number of commandments 10 added to the sevenfold gifts of the Spirit. Some ancient writers such as Jerome held that there were different types of fish in the world; this represents a "full harvest" of all of the world. Some like Cyril of Alexandria say that stands for the Gentiles, 50 for Israel and 3 for the Trinity.
The truth is that all we know for certain is that stands for the number of fish that they caught! We must always be careful of manufacturing "hidden meanings" in the Word of God. Jesus met with Peter individually on the day of His resurrection, Luke Do you love Me more than these: Jesus strangely asks Peter to compare his love for Him with that of the other disciples. It is possible that "these" refers to the fish and a fisherman's life. Jesus could be asking Peter if he is willing to give up fishing again to follow Him. But Peter had claimed a superior love Matthew Does he still have this proud estimation of his devotion?
Do you love Me more than these … You know that I love You: Jesus asks about agape love all giving, uncaused, unselfish love and Peter answers with phileo love reciprocal, friendly affection. Some translations have Peter answering "I am your friend. Some commentators see no distinctions between the two different ancient Greek terms, but most say that Peter is now more reserved in his proclamation of devotion.

Feed My lambs … Tend My sheep: For Peter to follow through with that love for Jesus, he must give himself to the service of God's people. Do you love Me?
He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me? Do you love Me … Lord, You know all things: This time, Jesus asks if Peter does in fact have a friendly devotion phileo to Jesus. Peter leaves the question with Jesus' omniscience.

Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time: What really grieved Peter was the three-time repetition, because it was a plain reminder of his previous three-time denial. Jesus restores us by causing us to face squarely our point of failure, then challenging us to set our eyes on the work ahead. Jesus doesn't ask "are you sorry? Jesus allowed Peter a three-fold public affirmation of love to replace a three-fold denial, and gave him a three-fold challenge to feed My sheep.

And when He had spoken this, He said to him, "Follow Me. When you are old, you will stretch out your hands: Jesus promises Peter that his life will end in utter faithfulness, that in the end Peter will make a faithful stand for Jesus and be crucified. And carry you where you do not wish: If Peter's principle of life once was a self-reliance, from now on his principle of life will be the cross. The most important, all encompassing words: Then Peter, turning around, saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also had leaned on His breast at the supper, and said, "Lord, who is the one who betrays You?
Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, "If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you? If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you? Jesus' words apply to us. Instead of worrying about what He will do or is doing with other believers, our focus should be on His command to Follow Me. Jesus did not say to him that he would not die: This is the disciple who testifies of these things, and wrote these things; and we know that his testimony is true.
And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.
The disciple who testifies of these things, and wrote these things: It is both a testimony of accuracy and incompleteness. Even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written: God's works have no end, and the events are to continue as we obey Jesus' command to follow Me.
