<![CDATA[The Gospel of John presented many miracle stories of Jesus that contain particular theological ideas. One that particular story was the story of Jesus walking on the sea in John 6:16-21. This particular story was great to research because it had fantastic narrative aspects. For that reason, this research used fantastic literature hermeneutic approach by Tzvetan Todorov to find the meaning of the text behind the miracle story in John 6:16-21. According to the analysis, two perspectives of the fantastic genre operated in it. First, in the character’s perspective and the second one in the reader’s perspective.
