Let me get this straight. Jesus can walk on water and turn water into wine... But when it comes to making a whip, he's suddenly an average whip maker? Naaah.
He magically transformed water into wine. Manifested a bunch of fish and bread. Makes sense that he could have pulled a whip out of thin air too.
OP’s screen cap is cool and would make for a great graphic novel, but it also seems likely the author needed him to have a whip so he magically had a whip.
In both the wine and food situations, he didn’t pull things out of thin air. He worked with existing materials: water and empty vessels and some fish and bread that was already there.
Miracles throughout the Bible work that way as well, good can take everyday items and make them miraculous and they are because God is involved, but He is never far away. We are just like those simple things transformed by God and we need a little faith and sometimes God let’s us perform miracles too.
I have heard stories like missionaries have a keg of Gatorade and not running out. Miracle healings were also common at one of the churches I attended at my out of state college. Some immediate, some God showing His work to doctors who couldn’t with a man who had a complicated and twisted brain tumor, the church prayed and when they looked again, it was in a neat little ball to pluck out.

Jesus Christ knew how to work with his hands.
Yeah he was brought up to be a craftsman and humble. A craftsman would make it himself.
