Luke 8:22-26

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 8:22-25

(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. (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. (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 water: and they ceased, and there... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 8:26-39

(26) And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee. (27) And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs: (28) When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee torment me not. (29) (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to... 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

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Luke 8:25

After Christ had appeased the storm at sea, the disciples, all astonishment at the miracle, began to whisper to each other, saying, Who is this? not that the disciples were ignorant of whom they were speaking, but they wondered at his mighty works, and at the glory of his divine power.

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Luke 8:26

Here St. Matthew relates the history of the two demoniacs, whilst St. Mark and St. Luke speak only of one; but the man mentioned in these two evangelists, was a man of some consideration and consequence, for whose cure the country was deeply interested. (St. Augustine, de concord. evang.) 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.

We may learn much out of this history concerning the world of infernal,... read more

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
