During the fourth watch of the night The "fourth watch" refers to the Roman division of the night into four parts, each lasting three hours. This watch would be approximately from 3:00 AM to 6:00 AM. The timing is significant as it represents the darkest part of the night, just before dawn. In a spiritual sense, this can symbolize the moments in our lives when we feel most vulnerable or in despair. The historical context of Roman timekeeping highlights the precision and order of the era, contrasting with the chaos the disciples felt in the storm. It reminds us that God’s timing is perfect, even when we are in our darkest hour. Jesus went out to them walking on the sea Walking on the sea.--Here, again, we have to choose between the simple acceptance of the supernatural fact as another instance of His sovereignty, or rejecting it as a legend. On the former supposition. we may see in it something like an anticipation (not unconnected, it may be, with the intensity of that crisis in His life) of that spiritual body of which we see another manifestation in the Transfiguration, and which became normal after the Resurrection, reaching its completeness in the wonder of the Ascension. We speculate almost involuntarily on the nature, and, as it were, process of the miracle, asking whether the ordinary laws that govern motion were broken or suspended, or counteracted by higher laws. No such questions would seem to have suggested themselves to the disciples. They, as yet not free from the popular superstitions of their countrymen, thought that it was "a spirit" (better, a phantom, or spectre) taking the familiar form, it might be, to lure them to their destruction, or as a token that some sudden mischance had deprived them of that loved Presence, and, therefore, in their vague terror, they were troubled, and cried out for fear.

Jesus went; came (Revised Version); η΅λθε, not ἀπῆλθε, with Received Text. Unto them, walking on the sea (ἐπὶ τὴν θάλθασσαν); contrast ver. 26 (ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης). Here there is more thought of motion (cf. ver. 29), but in the next verse the advance is almost forgotten, and the fact of Christ being on the water is all-important; "they saw him on the sea, walking."Parallel Commentaries ...
