In the Greek version of the Jesus prayer the word Eleison means “oil,” which was used for healing purposes in ancient times. So when we pray the Jesus prayer, we ask Jesus to apply his healing balm to us.

Join us in Contemplata Episode 60, The Jesus Prayer, as Fr. James Brent, O.P. teaches us how to unify ourselves with Jesus through a simple prayer.

Contemplata is available wherever you get your podcasts.
