SCRIPTURE COMMENTARY #276

And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray: and he passed the whole night in the prayer of God. (Luke 6:12)


THE NECESSITY OF PRAYER: As Jesus prayed perseveringly and fervently, before He chose His apostles, so ought we to begin every important undertaking by prayer, so as to ensure God's help and blessing.

[From 'A Practical Commentary on Holy Scripture' by Bishop Knecht, D.D.]

(1899 Douay-Rheims Bible)
