Mark:4:1-20
Seeker Overlay ON
*
AGAIN Jesus began to teach beside the lake ,
and a very great crowd gathered around him ,
so that he got into a boat on the lake and sat down ,
and all the crowd was on the shore near the lake .
*
He taught them many things by figures of speech .
He said to them in his teaching ,

He said to them ,

When he was alone ,
his close friends and the twelve asked him about the illustrations .

He replied ,

*
With many such illustrations he went on talking to them as they were able to listen ;
*
but except in figures of speech he did not talk to them .
Privately to his own disciples he explained all things .
*
On that day when evening came he said to them ,
*
So they left the crowd and took him along just as he was ,
in the boat .
There were also other boats with them .
*
Then a heavy squall of wind came up and the waves beat into the boat so that it was filling .
*
But he was in the stern asleep on the cushion .
They aroused him and said to him , "
Teacher ,
do you not care that we are sinking ?"
*
When he awoke ,
he rebuked the wind and said to the sea ,
The wind ceased and there was a great calm .
*
Then he asked them ,
*
But they were intensely awestruck and said to one another , "
Who ,
then ,
is this ,
that even the wind and the lake obey him ?"
