Matthew 14:25
Next Verse

And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.

Note 2 at Mt 14:25: The fourth watch would have been from 3:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. The Romans divided the night into four watches: 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., 9:00 p.m. to midnight, midnight to 3:00 a.m., and 3:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. The Jews divided the night into three watches: sunset to 10:00 p.m., 10:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., and 2:00 a.m. to sunrise. The "fourth watch" indicates Matthew was using the Roman system rather than the Jewish system to reckon time in this verse (see note 3 at Joh 1:39 for more information on time).
