Jesus walking on water

Jesus walking on water is one of the miracles attributed to Jesus in the New Testament. There are accounts of this in three of the Gospels.
This story, following the miracle of the feeding of the five thousand, tells how Jesus sent the disciples by ship back to the other side of the Sea of Galilee while he remained behind, alone, to pray. Night fell and the sea arose as the ship became caught in a wind storm. After rowing against the wind most of the night, the disciples saw Jesus walking on the sea. They were frightened, thinking they were seeing a spirit, but when Jesus told them not to be afraid, they were reassured. After Jesus entered the ship, the wind ceased, and they arrived at land. According to the version in the Gospel of Matthew, Peter "walked on the water" towards Jesus, but he became afraid, began to sink, and Jesus rescued him.
Christian teachings consider the episode a miracle intended to show the importance of faith, and the control of Jesus over nature. Biblical scholars view the story as playing a part in the assertion of the divinity of Jesus among early Christians. In this view, it is seen as a demonstration that God the Father is willing to share divine power with Jesus.〔〔
Some scholars have suggested that this was a real, but not miraculous event, but many modern scholars regard the story as creative symbolism, or a pious fiction. George Young considers the story as fantastic art which should be analyzed by literary-critical methods.
==Biblical narrative==
Jesus walking on water appears in the gospels of Mark and is repeated in the Gospel of Matthew, but is left out of the Gospel of Luke. It also appears in the Gospel of John.
In all three gospels it follows the narrative of the feeding of the 5000, where Jesus had withdrawn by ship to a desert place "belonging to" Bethsaida after hearing of the death of John the Baptist, but was followed by the crowds on foot.〔Steven L. Cox, Kendell H Easley, 2007, ''(HCSB Harmony of the Gospels )'', B&H Publishing Group, ISBN 978-1433669842 pages 270-272〕
In all three accounts, during the evening the disciples got into a ship to cross to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, without Jesus who went up the mountain to pray alone. John alone specifies they were headed "toward Capernaum". During the journey on the sea the disciples were distressed by wind and waves, but saw Jesus walking towards them on the sea. John alone specified that they were five or six kilometers away from their departure point. The disciples were startled to see Jesus, but he told them not to be afraid.〔
Matthew's account adds that Peter asked to come unto Jesus on the water. After Peter came down out of the ship and walked on the water, he became afraid of the storm and began to sink. He called out to Jesus for help. Jesus caught him and reproved him for his lack of faith, and led him back to the ship, whereupon the storm stopped. Matthew also notes that the disciples called Jesus the Son of God.〔 The fact that the John account also lacks this details suggests that it is a redactional addition by Matthew.〔Rachel Nicholls, ''Walking on the Water: Reading Mt. 14:22-33 in the Light of Its Wirkungsgeschichte'' (BRILL, 2008) page 45.〕
In all three accounts, after Jesus got into the ship, the wind ceased and they reached the shore. Only John's account has their ship immediately reach the shore. Matthew's and Mark's accounts end at this point, but John mentions that the next day some people from the other side of the sea that looked for Jesus, noted that the disciples left without him, but they didn't know where he went. When they came to Capernaum and asked Jesus how he came there, instead of answering the question, he told the crowd that they followed him not because they had seen signs but because of the free loaves they had eaten the day before, and he advised them not to seek earthly gains, but aim for a life based on higher spiritual values.〔〔Jack Dean Kingsbury, Mark Allan Powell, David R. Bauer, 1999 ''(Who do you say that I am?: essays on Christology )'', Westminster John Knox Press, ISBN 978-0664257521, page 83〕
This episode is narrated towards the end of the Ministry of Jesus in Galilee before the key turning points half way through the gospel narratives where Peter proclaimed Jesus as Christ and saw the Transfiguration.〔〔''(The Life and Ministry of Jesus: The Gospels )'' by Douglas Redford 2007 ISBN 0-7847-1900-4 pages 189-207〕
