Why Did Jesus Walk on Water? The Old Testament Answer

Описание к видео Why Did Jesus Walk on Water? The Old Testament Answer

Only Mark tells us that when Jesus walked on water, he “meant to pass by” his disciples. What’s the meaning of this strange expression? Hint: this is a loaded Greek phrase that has parallels in Exodus 33 and Job 9, which we will explore in this video. We will also answer the basic question: Why did Jesus walk on water? It was not just to flex his divine muscles so his followers could ooh and aah over his power. This was a calculated, Old Testament-like miracle with roots in creation, the exodus, and elsewhere. In this week’s video for “Reading the Gospels through Hebrew Eyes,” Chad Bird will guide us through Mark 6:45-52.
