Exegesis
The clause ouketi auto helkusai ischuon {οὐκέτι αὐτὸ ἑλκύσαι ἴσχυον | oukéti autó helkýsai íschuon} expresses continued inability rather than a brief struggle, and apo tou plethous ton ichthuon {ἀπὸ τοῦ πλήθους τῶν ἰχθύων | apó tou plḗthous tôn ichthýōn} supplies the cause: the sheer quantity of fish overwhelms their strength. The sentence therefore forms a tight command-response-result sequence that highlights both obedience and the abundance that follows Jesus’ word.
In context — John 21:6
But He said to them, “Cast the net over on the right-hand side of the boat, and you will find.” So they cast it, and they were no longer able to haul it up because of the great multitude of fish.
