Various words are translated “net,” some signifying large nets, and others the drag net. Symbolically nets represent devices secretly laid or they would be shunned, even as a bird avoids a net spread in its sight (Prov. 1:17). The kingdom of heaven is compared to a net cast into the sea, which gathers good and bad; “the wicked” will be sorted from “the just” at the end of the age (Matt. 13:47-49). Satan and the wicked also prepare their nets and snares (Psa. 141:10; 1 Tim. 3:7).
Trammel nets for snaring migratory quail near Gaza.
