Another Storm, Really?

Contributed by Jason Jones on Nov 16, 2022

This miracle was not a cool trick to show his disciples, but with a specific purpose, like the others, to reveal himself to the disciples. This miracle was about walking on the water.

Background to passage: Since the end of chapter four, Jesus has been demonstrating his person and character through multiple miracles. He calmed a storm, cast out a demon, healed the sick, raised a little girl from the dead. Now, having fed the 5000+, Jesus sends them away and sends the disciples ...read more

Matthew 2 Joseph's Difficult Road Series
