Prayer is not a quiet conversation β it is an act of intercession, standing between heaven and earth on someone's behalf
palal Β· H6419 Β· HEBREW
The Hebrew word palal (Χ€ΦΈΦΌΧΦ·Χ) carries the weight of intercession β standing in the gap for someone else, of bringing another person's need before God, and of trusting God as the ultimate judge and arbiter of what is right. It is the word used for Hannah's anguished prayer, Moses' intercession for Israel, and Samuel's lifelong commitment to pray for the people.
