Fish provides more than three billion poor people with most of their daily affordable source of protein/nutrition. More than five hundred million people depend directly on fisheries and aquaculture for their livelihoods. In Matthew 4:19, Jesus said to Peter and Andrew 'Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.' But God miraculously split the hollow place that is in Lehi so that water came out of it, as found in Judges 15:19. When he drank, his strength returned and he revived. Therefore, he named it, Enhakkore, which is in Lehi to this day.The Old and New Testaments have an incredible unity between them in terms of numbers. More than one-third of the New Testament is composed of Old Testament quotes. Many writings from the prophets and Psalms could not be understood without the Gospels and the rest of the New Testament.Watercourses and permanent rivers are used symbolically to refer to things that threaten or overwhelm people and nations, such as invading nations, the peace of God and the Holy Spirit. The sea was created and controlled by God as seen in Genesis 1:9-10, 'And God said, ’Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.’' During the Old Testament times, it was believed that worshiping God on the tops of mountains brought one 'closer to God.' God often reveals himself on a mountaintop in the text. As a result, the Old Testament is filled with places that speak about altars being built in 'high places' to worship God and false gods as well (1 Kings 3:2-4, 13:32-34, 2 Kings 12:3). In the New Testament, Mark 3:13-14, Jesus appointed the twelve apostles on a mountain, whom he called the apostles.
