A.T. Robertson Commentary Luke 5:11

"And when they had brought their boats to land, they left all, and followed him." — Luke 5:11 (ASV)

They left all, and followed him (αφεντες παντα ηκολουθησαν). Then and there. They had already become his disciples. Now they leave their business for active service of Christ. The conduct of this group of business men should make other business men to pause and see if Jesus is calling them to do likewise.
