Notes on verse:

“Stand praying”: The traditional Jewish prayer posture (1 Sam. 1:26; Matt. 26:39; Acts 7:6).

“Ought against any”: An all-inclusive statement that includes both sins and simple dislikes, which cause the believer to hold something against another person. “Anyone” incorporates believers and unbelievers.

“Forgive”: Jesus states the believer’s ongoing duty is to have a forgiving attitude. Successful prayer requires forgiveness as well as faith. See notes on Eph. 4:32.
