Mark 4:41
Compare all
39 Then He arose and arebuked the wind, and said to the sea, b“Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.  
40 But He said to them, “Why are you so fearful? aHow is it that you have no faith?”  
41 And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, “Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!”

Mark 4:41

What manner of man is this? - They were astonished at such power proceeding from a person who appeared to be only like one of themselves. It is often profitable to entertain each other with the succor and support which we receive from God in times of temptation and distress; and to adore, with respectful awe, that sovereign power and goodness by which we have been delivered.

Having spoken so largely of the spiritual and practical uses to be made of these transactions, where the parallel places occur in the preceding evangelist, I do not think it necessary to repeat those things here.
