Context of Matthew 14:33

31Immediately, Jesus reached out, caught hold of him, and said, “You have so little faith! Why did you doubt?” 32When they got into the boat, the wind stopped blowing. The men in the boat bowed down in front of Jesus and said, “You are truly the Son of God.” 34They crossed the sea and landed at Gennesaret. 35The men there recognized Jesus and sent messengers all around the countryside. The people brought him everyone who was sick.

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 33Thou art the Son of God - It is probable that these words were spoken either by the sailors or passengers, and not by the disciples. Critics have remarked that, when this phrase is used to denominate the Messiah, both the articles are used, ̔ , and that the words without the articles mean, in the common Jewish phrase, a Divine person. It would have been a strange thing indeed, if the disciples, after all the miracles they had seen Jesus work - after their…Read the comment
• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 22-33Verses 22-33 Those are not Christ's followers who cannot enjoy being alone with God and their own hearts.
