10 Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your face, and might perfect that which is lacking in your faith?



Ver. 10. Night and day praying exceedingly] Prayer must be constant and instant, with utmost assiduity and intention of affection, Luk_18:1. {See Trapp on "Luk_18:1"}



And might perfect that which is lacking in your faith] Faith is not as Jonah’s gourd, that grew up in a night; or as a bullet in a mould, that is made in a moment; but is perfected by degrees and so made even (as the word êáôáñôéóáé signifies here in the original) and complete.
