this - praying for all men.

in the sight of God - not merely before men, as if it were their favor that we sought (2Co 8:21).

our Saviour - a title appropriate to the matter in hand. He who is “our Savior” is willing that all should be saved (1Ti 2:4; Rom 5:18); therefore we should meet the will of God in behalf of others, by praying for the salvation of all men. More would be converted if we would pray more. He has actually saved us who believe, being “our Savior.” He is willing that all should be saved, even those who do not as yet believe, if they will believe (compare 1Ti 4:10; Tit 2:11).
