II Peter 1:15 And I will endeavour, that you frequently have after my decease, whereby you may keep a memory of these things.

That you frequently have after my decease,{ Ver. 15. Dabo operam et frequenter habere vos, post obitum meum, ut horum memoriam faciatis. umas....ten touton mnemen poieisthai.|} etc. Some expounded these words to signify: I will have you frequently in my thoughts, and remember you, praying for you after my death. But this does not seem the true and literal sense, nor do we need such arguments to prove that the saints pray for us. (Witham)
