Exegesis
The verse begins with the nominative subject hoi de mathētai {οἱ δὲ μαθηταὶ | hoí dè mathētai} ‘but the disciples’, where the conjunction de signals a transition in the narrative.
In context — Matthew 14:26
But the disciples, when they saw Him walking on the sea, were shaken, saying, “It is a ghost !” and in fear they cried out.
