A Torah-teacher approached and said to him, "Rabbi, I will follow you wherever you go."
20
Yeshua said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds flying about have nests, but the Son of Man has no home of his own."
21
Another of the talmidim said to him, "Sir, first let me go and bury my father."
22
But Yeshua replied, "Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead."
23
He boarded the boat, and his talmidim followed.
24
Then, without warning, a furious storm arose on the lake, so that waves were sweeping over the boat. But Yeshua was sleeping.
25
So they came and roused him, saying, "Sir! Help! We're about to die!"
26
He said to them, "Why are you afraid? So little trust you have!" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and there was a dead calm.
27
The men were astounded. They asked, "What kind of man is this, that even the winds and sea obey him?"
28
When Yeshua arrived at the other side of the lake, in the Gadarenes' territory, there came out of the burial caves two men controlled by demons, so violent that no one dared travel on that road.
29
They screamed, "What do you want with us, Son of God? Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?"
