Thematic Bible: The friend at midnight

And he said to them, "Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him'; and he will answer from within, 'Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything'? read more.
I tell you, though he will not get up and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence he will rise and give him as much as he needs.
