Commentary on Matthew 14:27
Jesus' immediate response 'Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid' addresses the disciples' terror. 'Be of good cheer' (Greek: tharseō) means take courage. 'It is I' (Greek: egō eimi) echoes God's self-revelation to Moses (Exodus 3:14)—the divine name 'I AM.' This identifies Jesus as Yahweh. 'Be not afraid' is God's common command to His people encountering His presence. Jesus transforms their terror into assurance through His self-revelation.
