- 8:25 The reverent plea of the disciples contrasts sharply with their reproach of Jesus in Mk 4:38.
- 8:26 You of little faith: see note on Mt 6:30. Great calm: Jesus’ calming the sea may be meant to recall the Old Testament theme of God’s control over the chaotic waters (Ps 65:8; 89:10; 93:3–4; 107:29).
