Then they that were in the ship came and worshiped him, saying, Of a truth you are the Son of God.
All Commentaries on Matthew 14:33 Go To Matthew 14

It may be doubted, whether the mystery of the blessed Trinity had been at this time explicitly revealed to the Jews. Most probably not. By "thou art the Son of God "they only mean to bear testimony of his sanctity, and showed themselves willing to acknowledge him for their Messias, as formerly prophets and holy men were styled, sons of God. Or we may suppose that the Almighty enlightened their understanding by an interior ray of his light, to know a truth which was obscure to others, and therefore they come and adore him. (Jansenius)
