The Parable of the Friend at Night (or of the Importunate Neighbour) is a parable of Jesus which appears in Luke 11:5-8. In it, a friend eventually agrees to help his neighbor due to his persistent demands rather than because they are friends, despite the late hour and the inconvenience of it. * This parable demonstrates the need to pray without giving up. It is similar to the Parable of the Unjust Judge and is depicted by several artists, including William Holman Hunt. |
