The Key Word — κοπάζω, kopazōgenerated
The verb ἐκόπασεν is an aorist active indicative form of kopazō, meaning 'to cease' or 'to abate.' It describes the wind's action of stopping, conveying a sense of calm after turmoil.
This verb is used in contexts that emphasize the cessation of natural phenomena, particularly in relation to storms. Here, it indicates that the wind's fury came to an end at the moment Jesus and Peter returned to the boat.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the word used is died down, while the KJV and ASV use ceased. The YLT translates it as lulled, which conveys a similar calming effect but with a different nuance.
Thus, the translations reflect a consensus on the wind's cessation, though they vary in the specific terms used to describe this calming action.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb is ἐκόπασεν, ceased, which governs the action of the wind. The sentence structure includes a participial phrase ἀναβάντων indicating the action of climbing back into the boat, and a noun phrase τὸ πλοῖον as the object.
The grammatical arrangement shows that the action of ceasing is directly related to the action of entering the boat, illustrating how the presence of Jesus brings peace.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In Matthew 14:32, the Greek word ἀναβάντων (anabainō), meaning 'when they had climbed back,' corresponds to the Hebrew word עָלָה (ʿālāh), which conveys the idea of ascending or going up. This choice emphasizes the action of the disciples returning to the boat after their experience on the water.
The term πλοῖον (ploion), meaning 'boat,' is used in the LXX to translate the Hebrew word אֳנִיָּה (ʾōnîyāh), referring to a ship. This reinforces the setting of the narrative as it takes place on a body of water, highlighting the disciples' reliance on the boat for safety.
Additionally, the word ἐκόπασεν (kopazō), meaning 'ceased,' is chosen to render the Hebrew concept of מַי (mayim), which refers to waters. This connection illustrates the calming of the storm, emphasizing the miraculous nature of the event.
Finally, the term ἄνεμος (anemos), meaning 'wind,' corresponds to the Hebrew רוּחַ (ruaḥ), which can denote wind or spirit. This choice underscores the supernatural control over nature that Jesus demonstrates in this passage.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Matthew 14:32 recounts how after Peter walked on water, he and Jesus returned to the boat, and the wind calmed down. This moment illustrates Jesus' authority over nature and reassures the disciples of His divine power.

For the most part these mountain squalls died away gradually, and left the waves rough. Here the wind ceased in a moment, and ceased as their Lord entered the boat. And he gives a significant reason for their astonishment, “For they reflected not on the loaves, for their heart was hardened.” This was the later analysis which the disciples made of their feelings on that night. Had they understood all the divine creative energy which the miracle of the loaves involved, nothing afterwards, not even the walking on the waves, or the lulling of the storm, would have seemed startling to them.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

εἰς is a preposition meaning 'into' or 'to,' used with the accusative case. It indicates direction, entrance, or limit, applicable to place, time, and figurative purposes. The New Testament frequently employs it to express movement toward locations or states, as seen in passages like Matthew 8:23. It can also denote relationships or results, such as 'for' or 'among.'

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word πλοῖον (ploion) refers to a vessel or ship, derived from the verb meaning 'to sail.' It encompasses various types of boats, including merchant ships and small craft, and is frequently used in the New Testament, notably in Matthew 4:21-22 and Acts 21:2-3. The term has historical usage in classical literature as well.

κοπάζω (kopazō) means to grow weary or to cease, particularly in reference to natural phenomena like the wind. It appears in the New Testament in contexts where the wind abates or calms, specifically in Matthew 14:32 and Mark 4:39, 6:51. The word is derived from a root meaning to tire, and its usage spans various ancient texts.
κοπάζω: 1 aor. ἐκύπασα; (κόπος) ; prop. to grow weary or tired; hence to cease from violence, cease raging: 6 ἄνεμος (Hdt. 7, 191), Mt. xiv. 832; Mk. iv. 89; vi. 51. (Gen. viii. 1; Jon.i. 11 sq.; [ef. esp. Philo, somn. ii. 35].)
κοπάζω. On the Ionic origin of this word = “‘ cease, sink to rest,’’ which survives in MGr, see Thumb /e//en. pp. 209, 211, 214. Cf. Hesychius κόπασον' ἡσύχασον. » 66

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ἄνεμος (anemos) means 'wind' and is used in various contexts, including literal and metaphorical senses. It can refer to the four cardinal winds or directions, as well as symbolize instability in teaching (Eph 4:14). The term appears frequently in the New Testament, notably in passages describing storms and winds, such as Matthew 14:24 and Mark 4:39. Lexicons note its use in both classical and biblical literature.
From the words into comparison with which πνεῦμα is here brought, it will be evident that it is proposed to deal with it in its natural and earthly, not in its supernatural and heavenly, meaning. Only I will observe, that on the relations between πνοή and πνεῦμα in this its higher sense there is a discussion in Augustine, De Civ. Dei, xiii. 22; cf. De Anim. et huj. Orig. i. 14, 19. The first three words of this group, as they designate not things heavenly but things earthly, differ from one another exactly as, according to Seneca, do in the Latin ‘aér,’ ‘spiritus,’ ‘ ventus’ (Nat. Qu. v. 13) : ‘Spiritum a vento motus' separat; vehementior enim spiritus ventus est; invicem spiritus leviter fluens aer.’ Πνοή and πνεῦμα occur not seldom together, as at Isai. xlii. 5; lvii. 16; πνοή conveying the impression of a lighter, gentler, motion of the air than πνεῦμα, as ‘aura’ than ‘ventus.’…

1. Causes:
Unequal distribution of heat in the atmosphere causes currents of air or wind. The heated air rises and the air from around rushes in. The direction from which a current comes determines its name, as west wind coming from the West but blowing toward the East. When two currents of air of different directions meet, a spiral motion sometimes results.
See WHIRLWIND.
2. West Wind:
In Palestine the west wind is the most common. It comes from the sea and carries the moisture which condenses to form clouds, as it is turned upward by the mountains, to the cooler layers of the atmosphere. If the temperature reached is cool enough the cloud condenses and rain falls. Elijah looked toward the West for the "small cloud," and soon "the heavens grew black with clouds and wind" (1Ki 18:44 f). "When ye see a cloud rising in the…
