Man intercedes with man, sometimes to procure an advantage to himself, sometimes as a mediator to benefit another; he may be said to intercede for another when he puts words into the suppliant's mouth, and directs and prompts him to say what otherwise he would be unable to say, or to say in a more persuasive manner what he might intend to say. The intercession of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:26) is easily illustrated by this adaptation of the term. (See PARACIETE); (See INVOCATION).
