ข้อนี้หมายความว่าอะไร?
Jesus is speaking in this verse and says that even if someone won't get up to help a friend just because they are friends, they will still get up and give what's needed due to the persistent requests of their friend. The key message is about persistence in asking for what you need.
อธิบายสำหรับเด็ก
Imagine you're hungry at night and your mom or dad is asleep, but you really want a snack. If you keep asking politely but firmly, they'll get up and give you as much food as you need, even if they don't feel like it at first. This shows how important it is to be persistent when we ask for something.
บริบททางประวัติศาสตร์
This verse was written by Luke, a doctor and early Christian writer, around the late 1st century AD. The audience would have been both Jews and Gentiles familiar with Roman culture where persistence in asking for favors was seen as a virtue, but also potentially annoying if overdone.
