On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Others think that it was upon some other occasion, when the apostles were run aground in working some miracle, and were reproved by Christ for the weakness of their faith, as Matt. xvii. To him that blamed them they must apply themselves for grace to mend them; to him they cry, Lord, increase our faith.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Lord--(See on Lu 10:1). increase our faith--moved by the difficulty of avoiding and forgiving "offenses." This is the only instance in which a spiritual operation upon their souls was solicited of Christ by the Twelve; but a kindred and higher prayer had been offered before, by one with far fewer opportunities.
