But Jesus Himselfwould [often] slip awayto the wildernessand pray.
It was at thistimethat He went offto the mountainto pray,and He spent the whole nightin prayerto God.
After He had sentthe crowdsaway,He wentup on the mountainby Himselfto pray;and when it was evening,He was therealone.
After bidding them farewell,He leftfor the mountainto pray.
SoJesus,perceivingthat they were intendingto comeand take Him by forceto makeHim king,withdrewagainto the mountainby Himselfalone.
Nowwhenallthe peoplewere baptized,Jesuswas alsobaptized,and while He was praying,heavenwas opened,
Someeightdaysafterthesesayings,He took alongPeterand Johnand James,and wentup on the mountainto pray.
And whileHe was praying,the appearanceof His facebecamedifferent,and His clothing[became] white[and] gleaming.
