AMPLIFIED 2015					Mark 1:17 And Jesus said to them, "¹Follow Me [as My disciples, accepting Me as your Master and Teacher and walking the same path of life that I walk], and I will make you fishers of men."

Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

The concept of "follow" can represent three separate possibilities: in the early stages of His ministry, (1) walking with Him physically (literally), that is merely being in His presence regardless of personal belief or commitment; (2) accepting and identifying with the salvation He offered; and later on (3) being identified with Him by being subject to the scorn and rejection of unbelievers because of personal belief and commitment to Him.
