## Resource

John 17:1-5 The seventeenth chapter of the gospel of John is what many great men of God have considered to be "the Holy of Holies" of the Word of God. In this sacred chapter, the veil before the Most Holy Place is pulled aside and we are allowed to listen to inter-Trinitarian communication. The Lord Jesus spoke audibly, in the presence of His disciples, to His Heavenly Father after He concluded His "Farewell Discourse" (John 14 to 16). His special prayer is the longest recorded prayer of the Son of God. In the first part of His prayer, the Lord Jesus prayed for Himself. We discuss three aspects of this part of His prayer (see also Lesson 160b): (1) the purpose for His prayer, (2) the posture of His prayer, and (3) the petitions of His prayer.
