Mateo 8:25

25 Y llegándose sus discípulos, le despertaron, diciendo: Señor, sálvanos, que perecemos.

Mateo 8:25 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 8:25

And his disciples came unto him
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.

Mateo 8:25 In-Context

23 Y entrando él en un barco, sus discípulos le siguieron.

24 Y he aquí, fue hecho en el mar un gran movimiento, que el barco se cubría de las ondas; mas él dormía.

25 Y llegándose sus discípulos, le despertaron, diciendo: Señor, sálvanos, que perecemos.

26 Y él les dice: ¿Por qué teméis, hombres de poca fe? Entonces, despierto, reprendió a los vientos y al mar; y se hizo grande bonanza.

27 Y los hombres se maravillaron, diciendo: ¿Qué hombre es éste, que aun los vientos y el mar le obedecen?
