2 | Psalm Refers to Jesus Calming the Sea? | Ps 107:26 | Beja | 206602 | ||
Are the two connected? Absolutely. But let me respond with this question. Was it a prophecy that Jesus had to fulfill? Or was Jesus simply intentionally doing this to connect Himself to that psalm in the mind of His disciples in order to make a statement about who He was. Side note: Fulfillment of passages in the OT within the new is a tricky topic. Becaues so many instances such as the one you just brought up are obviously connected to the life of Christ or the early church, but we must never forget the passage had very real meaning in the time of the Old Testament also. A Jew reading this Psalm in the year 10 BC would not have been confused by it but certain it was a glorifying story of Yahweh delivering sailors in the midst of a storm. So we find ourselves with the situation that nobody probably ever suspected this to be a prophecy until the moment Jesus did what he did. So we must ask ourselves, was it one? Or did Jesus just decide to pain a picture with His actions in an attempt to essentially say, "I AM this God who calms the storms in Psalm 107." I leave you to decide. God bless |

3 | Psalm Refers to Jesus Calming the Sea? | Ps 107:26 | bowler | 206620 | ||
beja I appreciate what you are saying here. I am wondering since the disciples do not mention this Psalm at all if Jesus did indeed fulfill the Psalm to show them He was this person? It seems more likely that although He did fulfill it His major point was to point out their level of faith. In both the instances where He is walking on the water and in the boat sleeping He says the same thing "where is your faith", and the disciples question, "who is this man who does these things"? As if they are not aware He is God? About your question, was it one, which was mine as well? I think so based on Psalm 107:28 they cried to the Lord in their trouble. But I had to go back and look at the Psalm before I really noticed that. blessings abound, bowler |
