Why is Jesus referred to as the creator of the wind and the sea?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is revealed in scripture as the creator of all things, including nature.

In Mark 4:39, when Jesus rebuked the wind and the sea, he showcased his divine authority as the creator of all things. John 1:3 states, 'All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.' This implies that not only is Jesus fully God, but he also holds dominion over nature. His command over the wind and sea illustrates his unique power and divinity. The disciples’ question, 'What manner of man is this that even the wind and the sea obey him?' highlights their growing recognition of Jesus’s dual nature as both man and divine.
