Luke 18:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 18:2

1 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men ^aalways ought to pray and not lose heart,

2 saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor¹ regard man.

3 Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying,¹ ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’

4 And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man,

5 ^ayet because this widow troubles me I will¹ avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ ”

6 Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said.

7 And ^ashall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them?
