When the evening came on the ship was in the middle of the sea and he (Jesus) was alone on the land. About the fourth watch of the night the wind was blowing against them. He (Jesus) saw them in distress trying to row. He came toward them, walking on the sea and appeared to want to go past them. But they, on seeing him walking on the sea thought that it was a ghost and cried out. All who saw him were troubled. But he immediately talked with them. He said to them. “It’s all right. It’s myself. Do not be afraid.” And he went up to them getting into the ship. Then the wind dropped. They were very disturbed and astonished at this. They had not understood the significance of what had happened with the loaves and their multiplication. This was because their hearts had been hardened.
