John 6:21 Meaning and Commentary

John 6:21

Then they willingly received him into the ship
When they knew who he was; and especially he was the more welcome, as they were in distress; and he able, as they well knew, to help them:

and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went;
which was done, as Nonnus observes, by a divine motion; for not only the wind ceased, but another miracle was wrought; the ship was in an instant at the place whither they intended to go.

John 6:21 In-Context

19 Then [when they] had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they were afraid.
20 But he said to them, "[It] is I! Do not be afraid!"
21 So they were wanting to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat came to the land to which they were going.
22 On the next day, the crowd that was on the other side of the sea saw that other boats were not there (except one), and that Jesus had not entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had departed alone.
23 Other boats from Tiberias came near the place where they had eaten the bread [after] the Lord had given thanks.
