Luke 8:23-24
he fell asleep <879> [he fell.]
came down <2597> [came.]
Master Master <1988> [Master.]
<1453> [he arose.]
rebuked <2008> [and rebuked.]
As the agitation of the sea was merely the effect of the wind, it was necessary to remove the cause of the commotion before the effect would cease. But who, by simply saying Peace, be still, (Mr 4:39,) could do this but God? One word of our Lord can change the face of nature, and calm the troubled ocean, as well as restore peace to the disconsolate soul.
