back to Matt 14v24a or advance to Matt 14v24b

Jn 6:19a ... Then (the wind) having driven about "25 or 30 stadia," ...

This verse is purposely ambiguous, mysterious, and deceptive. It has no stated subject. The verb "elelakotes" (vp Perf Act Nom Pl m) means to drive or push. It implies it but it does not mean to row. The text doesn't say what is driving! The reader has to figure that out for himself. The propelling force could be the disciples, the wind in the sails, or even a supernatural power. ē ō .

The previous diagram showed that Jesus was the wind. Because this is a gematria story, not a history report, the narration always contains signs. The Jesus 8880 graph is how things are measured. Since a "stadia" is a unit of measure, this could be code for a Jesus 888 circle.

This hypothetical diagram shows exactly "twenty five" Jesus/stadia (888) circles fill a hexagon that is also tangent to the wind that encloses the boat. Another five Jesus circles are tangent to the hexagon enclosing the "25 stadia" in the middle of the sea.

Jesus is the wind. And that explains it. The wind drove (or stopped) the boat twenty-five stadia in the middle of the sea (on the graph) or thirty stadia measured between the top and bottom of the graph!
