SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:25
Y les dijo: ¿Qu es de vuestra fe? Y atemorizados, se maravillaban, diciendo los unos a los otros: ¿Quin es ste, que aun a los vientos y al agua manda, y le obedecen?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 8:25
Verse 25. Where is your faith?] Ye have a power to believe, and yet do not exercise it! Depend on God. Ye have little faith, (Matt. viii. 26,) because you do not use the grace which I have already given you. Many are looking for more faith without using that which they have. It is as possible to hide this talent as any other.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 25. And he said unto them, where is your faith ? etc.] That is, he said so to his disciples, who had professed faith in him, but now discovered very little: and they being afraid, wondered ; being filled with awful sense of his majesty, were amazed at his power and authority, in rebuking the wind and sea, which at once obeyed him, and were still: saying one another ; among themselves, privately: what manner of man is this? for he commandeth even the winds and water ; or the sea, as the Vulgate Latin. The Syriac version reads both, the floods and the sea; and they obey him : according to Matthew, these words seem to be spoken by the men of the ship, the mariners; but here, according to Luke, they seem to be the words of the disciples; (See Gill on Matthew 8:27) (See Gill on Mark 4:41).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 22-40 - Those that put to sea in a calm, even at Christ's word, must ye prepare for a storm, and for great peril in that storm. There is n relief for souls under a sense of guilt, and fear of wrath, but to go to Christ, and call him Master, and say, I am undone, if thou dost no help me. When our dangers are over, it becomes us to take to ourselve the shame of our own fears, and to give Christ the glory of ou deliverance. We may learn much out of this history concerning the worl of infernal, malignant spirits, which though not working now exactly in the same way as then, yet all must at all times carefully guar against. And these malignant spirits are very numerous. They have enmity to man and all his comforts. Those under Christ's government ar sweetly led with the bands of love; those under the devil's governmen are furiously driven. Oh what a comfort it is to the believer, that all the powers of darkness are under the control of the Lord Jesus! It is miracle of mercy, if those whom Satan possesses, are not brought to destruction and eternal ruin. Christ will not stay with those wh slight him; perhaps he may no more return to them, while others ar waiting for him, and glad to receive him.
