Luke 12:12

12 For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say."

Luke 12:12 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 12:12

For the Holy Ghost shall teach you
Shall give both words and matter: in the same hour; instantly, immediately:

what ye ought to say;
what will be proper to be said, for the honour of Christ, the defence of the Gospel, and the confusion of enemies; (See Gill on Matthew 10:20).

11 Now when they bring you to the synagogues and magistrates and authorities, do not worry about how or what you should answer, or what you should say.
12 For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say."
13 Then one from the crowd said to Him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me."
