When you first look at the sea of Galilee or Lake Tiberias, it’s pretty big and majestic coming off the hill. Yet today, I see boats on it and I can actually see the boats docking on the other side, so it’s not that big as well. My point being, the crowds could see where the disciples and Jesus were going. So they followed him along the shoreline. See John 6: 1-3. The story of Jesus on the hill feeding the multitudes and sharing the sermon on the mount comes easily to life as you see your surroundings here in the lowest freshwater body lake on Earth. The surrounding of the hills allows the winds to careen down their slopes gathering speed so that sudden forces of incredible velocity can threaten vessels going across. We experienced such winds last night!
