I This ſeemeth to be a different time from chat mentioned byMat- thew,wherc our Saviour direftcth '.;s diſciples to pray there his direction was part of his Sermg: on the 9wunt, Beſides,the doxology or concluſion 15 here I-ft out. It 1s ſaid here, { As be was praying in a c:rtain place. ] Chriſt Looked upon all places as holy cnough for Prar er. It alſo looks as it at this time our Saviour was not at his more ſecret Devotions, bur with the tie] ve,( which were ItsFami- ly} praying with them { 2w/2en he ceaſed.” [his 15 very obſervable a- eainſt thote who pretend impulles of tte Spirit, to difturh Mini- fters inthe time when they are praying and Preaching ; it may ea- fly be known-from what 5pirit.ſuch impulles are. The Diſciples of Chriſt often propounded queſtions to hun atter Preaching, but ne- ver interrupted him 1n his V Vork, nor before he was retired into an houſe. They now come to be intormed about Prayer, but they | ſtay till he had firſt ceaſed. Ve having no account in holv writ of | Johns Diſciples asking him, . or his teaching of them to Pray, are | more at a loſs, to determine whether our Saviour did intend that his Diſciples ſhould uſe theſe V Vords, as the phraſe here ſeemeth to import,or only pray this fenſe.ufter th9ts manner,as Matthew ſaith,
