Exegesis

The paired prepositional phrases pros se {πρὸς σὲ | pròs sè} ‘toward you’ and epi ta hydata {ἐπὶ τὰ ὕδατα | epì tà hýdata} ‘upon the waters’ specify direction and location. This structure underlines Peter’s reliance on Jesus’ authoritative word and frames the forthcoming miracle of walking on the sea.

In contextMatthew 14:28

And answering, Peter said to Him, “Lord , if indeed it is You, command me to come to You upon the waters.”
