John 21:19 Douay-Rheims

And this he said, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had said this, he saith to him: Follow me.

Theophylact of Ohrid

c. 1055–1107 Orthodox

When our Lord says to Peter, Follow Me, He confers upon him the superintendence over all the faithful, and at the same time bids him imitate Him in every thing, word and work. He shews too His affection for Peter; for those who are most dear to us, we bid follow us.
