MATTHEW—NOTE ON Matthew 14:25 fourth watch. The Roman military divided the night into four watches of three hours each, from 6:00 P.M. until 6:00 A.M. The fourth watch would have been between 3:00 and 6:00 A.M., so the disciples had battled the storm for more than nine hours (see “by this time,” v. Matthew 14:24).
