106 And I answered and said, How do we now find that first Abraham prayed for the people of Sodom, and Moses for the fathers that sinned in the wilderness:
107 and Joshua after him for Israel in the days of Achar:
108 and Samuel in the days of Saul; and David for the plague: and Solomon for them that should worship in the sanctuary:
109 and Elijah for those that received rain; and for the dead, that he might live:
110 and Hezekiah for the people in the days of Sennacherib: and many for many?
111 If therefore now, when corruption is grown up, and unrighteousness increased, the righteous have prayed for the ungodly, wherefore shall it not be so then also?
112 He answered me, and said, This present world is not the end; the full glory remains not therein: therefore have they who were able prayed for the weak.
