This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
And he arose, and rebuked the wind - “and the raging of the water” (Luk 8:24).
and said unto the sea, Peace, be still - two sublime words of command, from a Master to His servants, the elements.
And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm - The sudden hushing of the wind would not at once have calmed the sea, whose commotion would have settled only after a considerable time. But the word of command was given to both elements at once.
