Présentation de l'éditeur
The genesis of this book is very simple. Having occasion to prepare a special address on Prayer, it occurred to me to collate and compare all the words spoken by our Lord himself upon the great theme, as it had often been found that His teachings upon any given subject, when so combined, constitute a consistent and harmonious whole a body of doctrine, singularly comprehensive, and symmetrically complete. In order to present His teachings, as to Prayer, most fully and satisfactorily, three things seemed essential :F irst, to gather them all together, for the sake of completeness ;secondly, to classify them under appropriate divisions, for the sake of analysis and synthesis ;and, thirdly, to arrange them as far as possible in chronological order, for the sake of discovering and disclosing any progress of doctrine which they might exhibit.
