Luke 8:22-24

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Luke 8:22

And they launched forth: literally, they went up. The sense is, being gone abroad, they set forward, or launched forth, as in the Protestant translation. (Witham) read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Luke 8:24

In this Christ evidently shews two distinct natures; his human nature, denoted by his sleep; and his divine nature by stilling the tempest at sea. (Ven. Bede) read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 8:22-40

22-40 Those that put to sea in a calm, even at Christ's word, must yet prepare for a storm, and for great peril in that storm. There is no 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 not help me. When our dangers are over, it becomes us to take to ourselves the shame of our own fears, and to give Christ the glory of our deliverance. We may learn much out of this history concerning the world of infernal,... read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 8:1-99

Luke 8 THE OPENING VERSES show the thorough and systematic way in which the Lord Jesus evangelized the cities and villages. He announced the kingdom of God, which involves God’s authority being established and man’s salvation secured through judgment. It was too early as yet for the Gospel of 1Co 15.1-15.4 to be preached, though, now that we have that Gospel, we can still preach the kingdom of God in its present form. The twelve were with Him, and being trained under His eye. The other Gospels... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 8:22-25

The Storm on the Sea. v. 22. Now it came to pass on a certain day that He went into a ship with His disciples; and He said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. v. 23. But as they sailed, He fell asleep; and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy. v. 24. And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, Master, Master, we perish. Then He arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Luke 8:22-25

3. The King of the Kingdom of God at the same time the Lord of Creation, of the World of Spirits, of Death. Luke 8:22-56a. The Stilling Of The Storm In The Lake. Luke 8:22-25(Parallels: Matthew 8:23-27; Mark 4:35-41.

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 8:16-25

Hearing; Doing; Believing Luke 8:16-25 Inconsistency, unkindly words and acts, disobedience to our known duty will prevent our light from shining. If Christ has illumined your wick, see that you trust Him to find for you your stand, from which you may emit the clearest rays. You are lighted to shine! The closest relationship to Jesus is not that of nature but of grace. To listen in your heart to God’s voice, to hear it in His Word and in Providence and then to do as it decrees, will bring... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 8:1-56

Luke here refers to our Lord's journeyings, and reveals the interesting and beautiful fact of how women of wealth provided for him on the material level, ministering to Him of their substance. At this point Luke records the parable of the sower, which forever divides into four sections those who hear the proclamation of the Word: first, those in whom His truth can produce no results, wayside hearers; second, those whose power of hearing is superficial, rock hearers; third, those in whom other... read more

James Nisbet

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:24

CHRIST AND THE ELEMENTS‘Then He arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.’ Luke 8:24 There is much in that expression that ‘Christ rebuked the wind and the waves.’ You will miss a great part of the intention of the incident if you merely look upon it as a miracle of stilling a tempest. I. Why did Christ rebuke the elements?—The word appears the language of one who either sees moral guilt, or who, in his affection, is indignant at something... read more
