Interwoven Gospels Now it came to pass on that day, when evening came and Jesus saw great multitudes around Him, He commanded His disciples to depart, and saith to them, "Let us cross over unto the other side of the lake." And dismissing the multitude, they take Him with them as He was; and when He had entered into a boat, His disciples followed Him, and they set sail. And other boats were with Him. And behold, a great storm of wind arose on the lake, and the waves were dashing into the boat, so that it was already being covered and filled by them, and they were in danger. But He was asleep on the cushion in the stern. And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Master, Master, we perish!" "Lord, save us!" "Teacher, carest Thou not that we perish?" And He saith to them, "Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?" Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the raging of the water, and said to the sea, "Peace, be still." And they ceased, and there was a great calm. And He said to them, "Why are ye fearful? Where is your faith? Have ye yet no faith?" And they feared exceedingly and wondered, saying to one another, "Who then is this? What manner of man is this? For He commandeth even the winds and the sea, and they obey Him."
