Luke 8:23
"But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

But as he sailed he fell asleep,.... On a pillow, in the hinder part of the ship, as in Mar 4:38 and there came down a storm of wind on

the lake; see Gill on Mat 8:24 . and they were filled; with water: not the disciples, but the ship in which they were; and so the Ethiopic version renders it, "their ship was filled with water". The Syriac and Persic versions render it, "the ship was almost sunk", or immersed: and were in jeopardy; of their lives, in the utmost danger, just ready to go to the bottom. This clause is left out in the Syriac and Persic versions.
