The Stilling of the Storm in Matthew 8:23-27The stilling of the storm is among the ranks of nature miracles found in the Synoptic gospels. The stilling of the storm in Matthew 8:23-27 is distinctive in the author’s choice of words: using the more dramatic language of σεισμός and ἐπιτιμάω. The narrative also reflects OT motifs where Jesus is depicted doing what God has previously done and holding the same power over the sea as a representative of primordial chaos.
