The word "anemos" refers to wind, often used in the New Testament to describe natural phenomena that are beyond human control, symbolizing the power and majesty of God. The adjective "megas" means great or large, emphasizing the intensity of the wind. In the biblical context, wind often represents the Spirit of God or divine intervention. Here, it sets the stage for a miraculous event, reminding us of God's sovereignty over nature and His ability to use natural elements to fulfill His purposes. was blowing and the sea grew agitated Greek A strongμεγάλου (megalou) Adjective - Genitive Masculine Singular Strong's 3173: Large, great, in the widest sense. wind ἀνέμου (anemou) Noun - Genitive Masculine Singular Strong's 417: The wind; fig: applied to empty doctrines.
