Hebrews 13:19

But I beseech you the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

The request is an earnest appeal for the readers to pray on the writer's behalf. It also urges them to join corresponding action to their prayers. Its aim is that the writer may be brought back into their presence and fellowship again. The stress falls on hastening that reunion, that the restoration may take place the sooner.
