And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him;
And Simon and those who were with him came after him.
And Simon, and they that were with him, followed after him.
Simon and those who were with him followed after him;
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him;
And Simon - followed after him - Κατεδιωξαν, followed him eagerly. They had now begun to taste the good word of God, and thought they could never hear too much of it. Many possess this spirit when first converted to God. O! what a pity that they should ever lose it! The soul that relishes God's word is ever growing in grace by it.
And Simon - Simon Peter.
They that were with him - The other apostles.
