Mar 4:39 | JFB | STEP | 39. And he arose, and rebuked the wind-- "and the raging of the water" ( ). 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.
