But immediately Jesus spoke unto them, saying,
Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
All Commentaries on Matthew 14:27 Go To Matthew 14
John Chrysostom
AD 407
This word removed their fear, and caused them to take confidence. For as they knew Him not by sight, because of His marvellous kind of motion, and because of the time, He makes Himself manifest by His voice.
