What is the meaning of Matthew chapter 4 in the Bible?

AnswerMatthew chapter 14 is a reproduction of several important themes in Mark's Gospel, the main source used by the author of Matthew's Gospel.

Matthew 14:1-13 is the gospel story of the death of John the Baptist, based on Mark 6:14-29. The death of John is described somewhat differently by the Jewish historian, Josephus.

Matthew 14:13-21 is the story of the feeding of five thousand, based on Mark 6:31-44.

In Matthew 14:22-36, the disciples embarked on a fishing boat to cross the lake, but a sudden storm blew up and they were afraid that they would sink; Jesus walked on water, invited Peter to do the same, then he calmed the waves. They sailed to the land of Genneseret. This is based on Mark 6:45-56, although the story of Peter also walking on the water is unique to Matthew.
