Matthew 17:17
O faithless and perverse generation. Intended especially for the
disciples who had failed in the cure from weakness of faith.
How long shall I suffer you? Bear with your shortcomings.
Bring him hither to me. The emphasis is upon "me". This act of
mercy could have been done by his disciples had they been devout,
prayerful and believing.
