John 21

The theme of the Number 1224 begins in the prime Number 17 (Sacrifice) which is perfected its triangular form Sum(17) = 153 (The Passover). This then becomes the foundation of the eternal Covenant (B'rit) = 612 = 4 (Blood/Death cf. Genesis 4) x 153 implying the death of the Passover Lamb and His Blood upon the Doorposts. This is the Net (

) that caught the 153 fish repesenting all "whom thou [The Lord God] hast given me." Of course, we must not forget that the fundamental Hebrew verb "to fish" is also sums to 17. Glory!
