(usually , a small ship, SEE SHIP; the word does not occur in the Old Test. except in the translation “ferry-boat”, SEE FERRY ). In the narrative of the shipwreck of Paul, recorded in the 17th chapter of the Acts, it is stated Act 17:17, “We had much work to come by the boat” (, a skiff). Every ship had a boat, as at present, but it was not taken up at the commencement of the voyage and secured on the deck, but left on the water, attached to the stern by a rope; the difference may be thus accounted for: The modern navigator bids adieu to land, and has no further need for his boat; but the ancient mariner, in creeping along the coast, maintained frequent intercourse with the land, for which the boat was always kept ready. When, however, a storm arose, and danger was apprehended, and that the boat might be dashed to pieces against the sides of the ship, it was drawn close up under the stern. In the above passage we are to understand that this was done, and that there was much difficulty in thus securing the boat. SEE SHIPWRECK.<\/p>\n

would be the more appropriate rendering for (little ship, Mar 3:9; Mar 4:30; Joh 21:8), such as were in our Lord’s time and still are used on the Lake Tiberias (see Ridgaway, The Lord’s Land, p. 632). SEE SHIP.<\/p>\n

The word ship is rightly expelled from the Gospels by the Revisers. It corresponds to , which occurs nowhere in the Gospels, and in the NT only in Act 27:41. Being a small lake, the Sea of Galilee had no ships; but it had numerous boats mostly employed in fishing (termed in the Gospels, also [] in Josephus). Some of these were biggish craft, and usually swung at anchor on the Lake (cf. Josephus Vit. 33), being attended by , punts (cf. Joh 21:3; Joh 21:8). In Act 27:16; Act 27:30; Act 27:32 the small-boat of St. Pauls ship is called ). To quell the revolt in Tiberias, Josephus mustered all the boats on the Lake, and they numbered as many as 230 (Josephus BJ ii. xxi. 8). A boat which could accommodate Jesus and the Twelve must have been of considerable dimensions; and in the battle on the Lake, under Vespasian, the Romans fought on rafts and the pirates on boats. Though small and weak in comparison with the rafts, the boats must have been of considerable size (Josephus BJ iii. x. 9).<\/p>\n
Jesus had much to do with boats during His Galilaean ministry, and one use that He made of them is peculiarly noteworthy. In two recorded instances He employed a boat as His pulpit (Luk 5:1-3, Mat 13:1-2 = Mar 4:1). Getting into it to escape the pressure of the multitude, He pushed out a little way from the land and addressed the people ranged along the sloping beach, as St. Chrysostom puts it, fishing and netting those on the land ( ). Only two instances of His resorting to this device are recorded, but it seems to have been His practice. Early in His ministry, St. Mark says (Mar 3:9), He spake to his disciples that a little boat should wait on him because of the crowd, lest they should throng him; and it is interesting to observe how the Evangelist subsequently alludes to the boat (Mar 4:36; Mar 6:32. Cf. Mat 8:23 TR [Note: R Textus Receptus.] , Tisch.; WH [Note: H Westcott and Horts text.] ), meaning the boat which had been put at His disposal.<\/p>\n
