Mark 4:37 Cross References - AUV

³⁷ [Then] a violent windstorm arose [on the lake] and huge waves began splashing into the boat until it began to fill with water.

²³ And when He entered a boat, His disciples followed Him. ²⁴ Suddenly a violent storm came up over the lake, so that [huge] waves began to overwhelm the boat. But Jesus was sleeping [through it all].

²² Now it happened on one of those days that Jesus entered a boat with His disciples. He said to them, “Let us go over to the other side” [i.e., the east side of Lake Galilee]; so they launched out. ²³ But while they were sailing, Jesus fell asleep. A windstorm blew down on the lake and [the boat] began filling with water so they were in great danger [of sinking].

¹⁴ But a short time later, a violent northeasterly wind they called "Euraquilo" swept down, ¹⁵ and when the ship was caught [by it], we were not able to face the wind, so had to give in and allow the ship to drift. ¹⁶ Then, sailing on the sheltered side of a small island named Cauda, we experienced difficulty in trying to secure the ship's life-boat. ¹⁷ And when they [finally] got the boat hoisted up, they slung [rope] cables underneath [and around] the hull [of the ship to reinforce it]. Then, fearing the ship would run aground on the [shifting], shallow sandbar [called] Syrtis, they lowered their [navigation] gear [Note: This may have been sails, rigging, etc.] and so were driven [as a derelict by the wind]. ¹⁸ As we were being severely battered by the storm, they began the next day to throw the cargo overboard [i.e., to lighten the ship]. ¹⁹ On the third day, they handed [the rest of] the ship's gear to each other, and threw it overboard [Note: This was perhaps furniture, rigging, sails, baggage, etc.]. ²⁰ When they could see neither the sun nor the stars for many days [due to the storm], and with the wind blowing furiously on them, they gave up all hope of [ever] being saved.

⁴¹ Landing where two [strong] currents met, the ship ran aground, its bow lodging [in the sand] while its stern began to break up from the driving surf.
