Hebrews 13:19 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

He is the more urging and pressing them to the exercise of this duty more fervently, instantly, and abundantly, at this time, that they might prevail with God to remove hinderances by his enemies, freeing him from his chain and restraint at Rome, and to speed his liberty for a return to them, that it might be in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel. So the church prayed for Peter, and prevailed, Acts 12:12, and he had hopes that God would hear them for him also, Philemon 1:22.

Hebrews 13:19

19 But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
