In the original Greek according to Westcott-Hort for this verse is:
In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:
The New International Version translates the passage as:
This verse shows the remarkable faith of Peter in Jesus. It is said that the Lord worked this miracle either by keeping Peter up with divine power, or by making the water firm and solid. [1] [2]
Jerome: "Let those who think that the Lord’s body was not real, because He walked upon the yielding waters as a light æthereal substance, answer here how Peter walked, whom they by no means deny to be man." [3]
Rabanus Maurus: "Lastly, Theodorus wrote that the Lord had not bodily weight in respect of His flesh, but without weight walked on the sea. But the catholic faith preaches the contrary; for Dionysius says that He walked on the wave, without the feet, being immersed, having bodily weight, and the burden of matter." [3]
