| Summary: | This article examines the topics of prayer and the Spirit (Paraclete) that appear in textual sequence in Lk. 11.9–13 and Jn 14.13–17 but are absent from Mark and Matthew. While much attention has been devoted to the Lukan sequence, scholars have failed to offer a detailed analysis concerning the Johannine sequence and how it contributes to the author’s rhetorical and missiological agendas. Therefore, this article seeks to contribute to the scholarly discussion by examining both the Lukan and Johannine sequences on their own terms and in light of one another in order to elucidate how they function within the crises that are unique to each Gospel tradition. In the final analysis, this article will demonstrate that both Luke and John establish a relationship between prayer and the promise of pneumatic assistance that is not attested by Mark or Matthew. |
