“Nevertheless They Did Not Cease to Pray”

Brant Gardner

The twelve are praying, and Jesus encourages them to continue. He has approached them, and it would not be unreasonable that they would stop praying to turn their direct attention to whatever he had to say to them. Nevertheless, Jesus tells them to continue before they yet stopped. The emphasis is on the continuation of the action.
