John 6:18

18 A huge wind blew up, churning the sea.

John 6:18 Meaning and Commentary

John 6:18

And the sea arose
Swelled, and was tumultuous and raging; the waves mounted up, and tossed the ship to and fro:

by reason of a great wind that blew;
which agitated the waters of the sea, and lifted up the waves; which storm seems to have arose after they had set sail, and were got into the midst of the sea.

John 6:18 In-Context

16 In the evening his disciples went down to the sea,

17 got in the boat, and headed back across the water to Capernaum. It had grown quite dark and Jesus had not yet returned.

18 A huge wind blew up, churning the sea.

19 They were maybe three or four miles out when they saw Jesus walking on the sea, quite near the boat. They were scared senseless,

20 but he reassured them, "It's me. It's all right. Don't be afraid."
