Jesus Christ, who is recognized even by millions of non - Christians as a prophet of God, explained the Creator’s view of repetitive prayer, saying: “When praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. ” * ​ — Matthew 6: 7.
Jeesus Kristus, keda isegi miljonid mittekristlased peavad Jumala prohvetiks, andis teada, kuidas suhtub Looja samade palvete korrutamisse, kui ta ütles: „Kui te palvetate, siis ärge palju lobisege [„ palvetades ärge korrutage ühte ja sama ”, UM], nõnda nagu paganad, sest nad arvavad, et neid kuuldakse nende paljude sõnade tõttu ” *.
