A:We should start with the version in Mark's gospel, as this is the original on which the other two versions were based. After the miracle of the feeding of 5000, Jesus sent the disciples across the water by ship, while he sent the people away. He then went up into a mountain to pray. While on the mountain, he saw the ship labouring in the heavy sea, and walked across the water to reach the ship.

Matthew's version is similar, but adds the elaboration of Peter walking out onto the water, proving his faith. More than any of the other gospels, Matthew sets out to honour the apostle Peter.

John's version says that after the feeding of the 5000, they wanted to take Jesus by force and make him king, so he escaped up into the mountain. When evening came, the disciples apparently abandoned him and set across the water in the ship. Again, Jesus saw the ship labouring in the heavy sea, and walked across the water to reach the ship.

This important miracle is not found in Luke's Gospel because it is within the 'Missing Block', which probably represents a number of pages missing from the copy of Mark's Gospel that the author was using as a source.
