This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Father. See Joh_1:14 and and App-98. Fifteen times the Lord used this term in prayer (omitting parallel passages in brackets): Mat_11:25, Mat_11:26 (Luk_10:21); Joh_26:39, Joh_26:42 (Mar_14:36. Luk_22:42). Joh_23:34, Joh_23:46. Joh_11:41; Joh_12:27, Joh_12:28; Joh_17:1, Joh_17:5, Joh_17:11, Joh_17:21, Joh_17:24, Joh_17:25 (15 = 3x5. App-6). Next to John 17, this is the longest prayer recorded of our Lord.
hast heard = heardest (Aorist tense). This suggests that the prayer was heard and answered before, perhaps in Peraea. See Joh_11:4.
