::It is an interesting question whether Jesus spoke to the sea. Fact is, that Mark said so. That's why the KJB, NASB, and all other English versions of the Bible translate it this way. All those familiar with "new understandings about ancient Greek" agree on this point. Now, you have given reasons to think that Mark got this point wrong. '''That does not change his text''', and it should not change the translation. Your argument belongs in the commentary, the translation should follow the text wherever it goes. It is not our place to rectify perceived errors in the Gospel. --[[User:AugustO|AugustO]] ([[User talk:AugustO|talk]]) 13:42, 10 April 2017 (EDT) | ::It is an interesting question whether Jesus spoke to the sea.
