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 Jesús calma la tormenta
Luego Jesús entró en la barca y comenzó a cruzar el lago con sus discípulos.

24 De repente, se desató sobre el lago una fuerte tormenta, con olas que entraban en el barco; pero Jesús dormía.

25 Los discípulos fueron a despertarlo:
—Señor, ¡sálvanos! ¡Nos vamos a ahogar! —gritaron.

26 —preguntó Jesús—.
Entonces se levantó y reprendió al viento y a las olas y, de repente, hubo una gran calma.

27 Los discípulos quedaron asombrados y preguntaron: «¿Quién es este hombre? ¡Hasta el viento y las olas lo obedecen!».
