SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:25
Y llegndose sus discípulos, le despertaron, diciendo: Seor, slvanos, que perecemos.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 25. And his disciples came unto him , etc.] From some other part of the ship, being in great consternation, and distress, and awoke him; saying, Lord, save us, we perish . They awoke him by their loud cries, and repeated calls; for in Luke, the form of address is doubled, Master, Master! expressing their distress, importunity, and haste for deliverance saying, save us, we perish, or we are lost: which shows the apprehensions they had of their condition; not only that they were in danger of being lost, or were ready to be lost, but were lost: they saw no probability of escaping by any natural, rational methods: wherefore they apply to Christ, believing that he was able to save them, in this their extremity; as they had indeed a great deal of reason to conclude, from the miracles they had that day seen performed by him.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 23-27 - It is a comfort to those who go down to the sea in ships, and are ofte in perils there, to reflect that they have a Saviour to trust in an pray to, who knows what it is to be on the water, and to be in storm there. Those who are passing with Christ over the ocean of this world must expect storms. His human nature, like to ours in every thing but sin, was wearied, and he slept at this time to try the faith of his disciples. They, in their fear, came to their Master. Thus is it in soul; when lusts and temptations are swelling and raging, and God is as it were, asleep to it, this brings it to the brink of despair. The it cries for a word from his mouth, Lord Jesus, keep not silence to me or I am undone. Many that have true faith, are weak in it. Christ' disciples are apt to be disquieted with fears in a stormy day; to torment themselves that things are bad with them, and with disma thoughts that they will be worse. Great storms of doubt and fear in the soul, under the power of the spirit of bondage, sometimes end in wonderful calm, created and spoken by the Spirit of adoption. They wer astonished. They never saw a storm so turned at once into a perfec calm. He that can do this, can do any thing, which encourage confidence and comfort in him, in the most stormy day, within of without, Isa 26:4.
