Barnes's Matthew 8:23 Bible Commentary
Into a ship - This was on the Sea of Tiberias. The "ship" in which they sailed was probably a small open boat with sails, such as was commonly used for fishing on the lake.
His disciples - Not merely the apostles, but probably many others. There were many other ships in company with him, Mark 4:36. This circumstance would render the miracle much more striking and impressive.
Wesley's Matthew 8:23 Bible Commentary
8:23 Mark 4:35; Luke 8:22.
