1 tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic. 2 tn Or “a squall.” sn The Sea of Galilee is located in a depression some 700 ft (200 m) below sea level and is surrounded by hills. Frequently a rush of wind and the right mix of temperatures can cause a storm to come suddenly on the lake. Storms on the Sea of Galilee were known for their suddenness and violence. |
