Exegesis
The prepositional phrase epi tes thalasses {ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης | epì tês thaláss-ēs} “upon the sea” specifies the remarkable location of the action, while peripatounta {περιπατοῦντα | peripa-toûn-ta} “walking” is an accusative participle modifying auton {αὐτὸν | au-tòn} “him,” tightly linking the object seen with the unusual manner of movement.
In context — Mark 6:49
But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they thought it was an apparition , and they cried out.
