Matthew14:26
They were troubled. They were afraid. The sight was remarkable. It was sufficient to awe them. In the dark night, amidst the tumultuous billows, appeared the form of a man. They thought it was a spirit--an apparition. It was a common belief among the ancients that the spirits of men after death frequently appeared to the living.
