Description: Matt Harmon and Ben Gladd examine Mark 4:35–41 and show how the stilling of the storm reveals Jesus as the faithful prophet, the greater David, the true Joshua, and Yahweh in the flesh. Through Old Testament allusions and biblical-theological connections, they explain why this familiar story is central to understanding Jesus’s identity and the arrival of God’s kingdom.
