Matthew 10:19-20

     19. But when they deliver you up, take no thought—be not solicitous or anxious. (See on Mt 6:25).

      how or what ye shall speak—that is, either in what manner ye shall make your defense, or of what matter it shall consist.

      for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak—(See Ex 4:12; Jer 1:7).

     20. For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you—How remarkably this has been verified, the whole history of persecution thrillingly proclaims—from the Acts of the Apostles to the latest martyrology.
