Bonaventure, on Wis 14:4

Bonaventure · c. A.D. 1221–1274
Wis 14:4 · Douay-Rheims
“Shewing that thou art able to save out of all things, yea though a man went to sea without art.”
On this verse:
“Showing, namely by this, that you are powerful from all things, namely perils and misfortunes, to heal, or better according to another reading, to save, even if without a raft, that is, a ship, someone should go to sea: Isaiah forty-three: "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and the rivers shall not cover you"; whence "He raised up Peter walking on the waves, lest he be submerged," as is clear from Matthew fourteen: "He freed Paul, shipwrecked for the third time, from the depth of the sea," as is clear from Second Corinthians eleven.”
