The Future of Bible Study Is Here.
John 6:16–25
16 Now when evening came, His adisciples went down to the sea,
17 and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea ato Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
18 The sea began to be stirred up because a strong wind was blowing.
19 Then, when they had rowed about 1three or four miles, they * saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were frightened.
20 But He * said to them, “It is I; 1ado not be afraid.”
21 So they were willing to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.
22 The next day athe crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other small boat there, except one, and that Jesus bhad not entered with His disciples into the boat, but that His disciples had gone away alone.
23 There came other small boats from aTiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the bLord chad given thanks.
24 So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves got into the small boats, and acame to Capernaum seeking Jesus.
25 When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “aRabbi, when did You get here?”

* | A star (*) is used to mark verbs that are historical presents in the Greek which have been translated with an English past tense in order to conform to modern usage. The translators recognized that in some contexts the present tense seems more unexpected and unjustified to the English reader than a past tense would have been. But Greek authors frequently used the present tense for the sake of heightened vividness, thereby transporting their readers in imagination to the actual scene at the time of occurence. However, the translators felt that it would be wise to change these historical presents to English past tenses. |
