5 a fisher of men
ловец человеков; проповедник, миссионер [a fisher of men этим. библ. Matthew IV, 19]Among the motley throngs came also the fishers of men, the first vanguard of Congregational missionaries landing in 1820 to prepare the way for a conquering church militant. (Ch. Beard and M. Beard, ‘The Rise of American Civilization’, ch. XXIV) — Среди многочисленных и разношерстных толп, наводнивших страну, были и миссионеры - первые отряды конгрегационистской церкви, высадившиеся на побережье в 1820 году, чтобы проложить путь победоносному духовному воинству.
