I pose a lot of questions in this post and would love your commentary on any of them. I am not here to tell you what to believe or not believe. They had no faith in him, as sleeping, that he could deliver them but had some little faith in him that he might, could he be awaked out of sleep and for this Christ blames them for he, as the eternal God, was as able to save them sleeping as waking. Disclaimer: This is a post about faith and religion. It is not that their trust was a just a mound when. In Luke, the phrase is, "where is your faith?" what is become of it? You professed but just now to believe in me, is your faith gone already? In Mark it is, "how is it that ye have no faith?" That is, in exercise, their faith was very small, it could hardly be discerned: some faith they had, as appears by their application to him, but it was very little. O you of little faith doesnt mean that they believed God a little bit. O ye of little faith: See Gill on Matthew 6:30.

The fever ( Luke 4:39), the frenzy of the demoniac ( Mark 9:25), the tempest, are all treated as if they were hostile and rebel forces that needed to be restrained. Rebuked the winds and the sea.-This seems to have been almost, so to say, our Lord’s formula in working miracles. They had not altogether lost their trust in Him, but they had not learnt the lesson of the centurion’s faith, and were only at ease when they heard His voice, and saw that He was watching over them. Yet the word “of little faith” was singularly appropriate. Luke puts the question more strongly: “Where is your faith?” as though it had all drifted away under the pressure of their fears. Matthew 16:8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread Luke12:28.
