But I beseech you rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
All Commentaries on Hebrews 13:19 Go To Hebrews 13
John Chrysostom
AD 407
His thus praying was [the act] of one who loved them greatly, and that not simply, but with all earnestness, that so, he says, I may come to you speedily. The earnest desire to come to them is [the mark] of one conscious to himself of nothing [wrong], also the entreating them to pray for him.
Therefore having first asked their prayers, he then himself also prays for all good things on them.
