21 aThen another of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, blet me first go and bury my father.”
22 But Jesus said to him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
Wind and Wave Obey Jesus
23 Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him.
24 aAnd suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep.
25 Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”
26 But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then aHe arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.
27 So the men marveled, saying,1 “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
