“And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
18:1-8 All God's people are praying people. Here earnest steadiness in prayer for spiritual mercies is taught. The widow's earnestness prevailed even with the unjust judge: she might fear lest it should set him more against her; but our earnest prayer is pleasing to our God. Even to the end there will still be ground for the same complaint of weakness of faith.
“And these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.”
