Shabbat Shalom, Nazarene family.
On this occasion, we will learn about the biblical story that narrates how Yeshua, in the face of a violent storm at sea, rebukes the winds and the sea, bringing calm. This act demonstrates His authority over nature and His divine power. The story teaches lessons of faith, trust and control over adversity. The narrative underscores the importance of unwavering faith in the midst of life’s storms, reminding us that Yeshua is always present to bring peace and security.
The biblical passages used in this study are:
- Mattityahu (Matthew) 8:23-27
- Marqaus (Mark) 4:35-41
Some of the lessons learned from this study include:
- Demonstration of divine power: Yeshua demonstrates His authority over nature by calming the storm with just a few words, showing His dominion over the forces of creation.
- Lesson of faith and trust: The story highlights the importance of trusting Yeshua even in the midst of the most difficult and frightening circumstances.
- Shalom (Peace) in adversity: Yeshua offers peace in the midst of the storm, symbolizing His ability to bring calm to our lives even in times of crisis and chaos.

Marqaus (Mark) 4:40-41
40 But He said to them, “Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?”.
41 And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, “Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!”
We hope that you, and especially your sons and daughters, will enjoy this activity. For it is through the study of the Scriptures that we can come to understand the love and care that Yahweh has always had for us. And also perceive that He has been taking care of even the smallest detail, so that we can take care and enjoy all that He gives us. That is why it is so important that our children learn and grow up knowing that they are loved by the Creator of all that exists.
Shalom.
