The Meaning of the Lord’s Prayer

The Meaning of the Lord’s Prayer,

To start off I am going to give you some history of how we have the New Testament today. There are two places in the Bible where the Lord’s Prayer was written, Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4. The most common one is the one that is located in Matthew.
The New Testament was originally written in Koine Greek (c. 330 BC–330 AD)

34 AD: The Lord’s Prayer was told. Matthew wrote down the most used version of the Lord’s Prayer in Koine Greek.

Πάτερ ἡμῶν ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς·
ἁγιασθήτω τὸ ὄνομά σου·
ἐλθέτω ἡ βασιλεία σου·
γενηθήτω τὸ θέλημά σου,·
ὡς ἐν οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς·
τὸν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τὸν ἐπιούσιον δὸς ἡμῖν σήμερον·
καὶ ἄφες ἡμῖν τὰ ὀφειλήματα ἡμῶν,
ὡς καὶ ἡμεῖς ἀφίεμεν τοῖς ὀφειλέταις ἡμῶν·
καὶ μὴ εἰσενέγκῃς ἡμᾶς εἰς πειρασμόν,
ἀλλὰ ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ τοῦ πονηροῦ.

382 AD: Jerome's Latin Vulgate Manuscripts were produced which contains all 80 Books (39 Old Test. + 14 Apocrypha + 27 New Test).

600 AD: There were over 500 poor translations most into Latin.

600 AD: Latin became the ONLY allowed translation of the Bible enforced by the Roman Catholic Church.

Pater noster, qui es in caelis:
anctificetur Nomen Tuum;
adveniat Regnum Tuum;
fiat voluntas Tua,
sicut in caelo, et in terra.
Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie;
et dimitte nobis debita nostra,
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris;
et ne nos inducas in tentationem;
sed libera nos a Malo.

995 AD: First Anglo-Saxon (Early roots of English language) translation of the New Testament Produced.

1384 AD: Wycliffe is the first person to produce (Hand-Written) copy of the complete Bible(80 books) into Vernacular English from Vulgate Latin. His Bible is now known now as the Wycliffe Bible.

And thus ye shall pray, Our Father that art in heavens, hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come to; be thy will done in earth as it is in heaven
give to us this day our each day's bread;
and forgive to us our debts, as we forgive to our debtors;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

1455 AD: Gutenberg invents the printing press and mass produces the Roman Catholic Latin Bible.

1522 AD: Martin Luther's German New Testament is created.

Darum sollt ihr also beten: Unser Vater in dem Himmel! Dein Name werde geheiligt.
Dein Reich komme. Dein Wille geschehe auf Erden wie im Himmel.
Unser täglich Brot gib uns heute.
Und vergib uns unsere Schuld, wie wir unseren Schuldigern vergeben.
Und führe uns nicht in Versuchung, sondern erlöse uns von dem Übel. Denn dein ist das Reich und die Kraft und die Herrlichkeit in Ewigkeit. Amen.

1526 AD: William Tyndale's New Testament. The first mass produced English bible.

1537 AD: Tyndale-Matthews Bible. The second complete Bible printed in English. (80 books).

1539 AD: The "Great Bible". Or also called the Cromwell Bible. The first “Publish Use” English Bible (80 books).

1560 AD: The Geneva Bible. The first English Bible to add numbered verses to each chapter (80 Books).

I was only able to find the 1899 Douay-Rheims Bible

Thus therefore shall you pray: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our supersubstantial bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from evil. Amen.

1611 AD: The King James Bible. Originally with all 80 books. The Apocrypha was officially removed in 1885 leaving only 66 books.

After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

1791 AD: Isaac Collins and Isaiah Thomas produced the first illustrated King James family Bible with All 80 Books.

1833 AD: Webster's Bible. It was a revision of the King James Bible.

After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

1846 AD: The Illuminated Bible; The most lavishly illustrated Bible printed in America. A King James Version, with all 80 books.

1885 AD: The "English Revised Version" Bible (ERV). The First Major English Revision of the KJV.

1901 AD: The "American Standard Version" Bible (ASV). The First Major American Revision of the KJV.

Pray then like this:
    Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done,
    on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts,
   as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
   but deliver us from evil.

1971 AD: The "New American Standard Bible" (NASB). NASB says it is "Modern and Accurate”.

“Pray, then, in this way:
‘Our Father who is in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
‘Your kingdom come.
Your will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
‘Give us this day our daily bread.
‘And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
‘And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

1973 AD: The "New International Version" (NIV). NIV says it is "Modern and Accurate Phrase for Phrase Translation".

I could not find the original version. I was able to find the 1986 version.

“This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done
   on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our debts,
   as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’

1982 AD: The "New King James Version" (NKJV) is Published as a "Modern English Version Maintaining the Original Style of the King James."

In this manner, therefore, pray:
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

2002 AD: The English Standard Version (ESV) is Published as a translation to bridge the gap between the accuracy of the NASB and the readability of the NIV.

Pray then like this:
"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done,
    on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts,
   as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
   but deliver us from evil.

2011 AD: The most common version of the Bible is the New International Version (NIV)

“This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done
   on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our debts,
   as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’

So if you did not fall asleep with that here is what each line means.

Matthew 6:9 “This, then, is how you should pray:

This is how Jesus tells his Disciples how to pray.

Matthew 6:9 “‘Our Father in heaven,

It refers that we are praying to our eternal father who is in Heaven which in term makes us at peace and just you and God the Father.

Matthew 6:9 hallowed be your name,

Hallowed is a word that means adored and honored. It is to make you feel humble at the feet of God The Father.

Matthew 6:10 your kingdom come,

This is for the second rule of Jesus Christ to come. We pray that Jesus’ second coming will come.

Matthew 6:10 your will be done

That God the Father’s will be done.

Matthew 6:10 on earth as it is in heaven.

That his power and glory may come to earth as it is in Heaven.

Matthew 6:11 Give us today our daily bread.

Some people think that this is the bread that Jesus gave to his Disciples at the Last Supper. In fact Jesus is not talking about bread to eat. He is talking about the Bread of Life, or commonly known as the Bible. He wants us to read the Bible daily.

Matthew 6:12 Forgive us our debts,

This passage means forgive us our sins. Many people think that it is financial debts but in the perspective it is sins.

Matthew 6:12 as we also have forgiven our debtors.

We are not just to ask for forgiveness from sin but we are to also forgive others sins.

Matthew 6:13 And lead us not into temptation,

This is some more proof that Matthew 6:12 is talking about sin. This is a prayer for you (the prayer) not to fall into temptation or sin.

Matthew 6:13 but deliver us from the evil one.’

This is a prayer to remove us from The Evil One (the Devil), but the original test was neutral so it could be either evil ways or the Devil.

Now when you pray the Lord’s Prayer think of what each and every line truly means.

Chile Day 82:

Hello from Chile. I have been here for over 2 months. You might have viewed my photos and videos here. After 2 weeks of living here I felt that God wanted me to take a DTS (Discipleship Training Class) with YWAM (Youth With a Mission) while I am down here. I live with 5 other guys from: Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, and 2 from Chile. I have learned Spanish fast and well down here. I live just a few houses down from where I was originally staying. The Lord has blessed me in many ways down here. Everyone here has come up with many nicknames for me. I am going to miss all of my friends down here when I leave here in a few weeks. I have went to Mendoza Argentina, Vina Del Mar Chile, Canete Chile and those are just to mane a few cities. The people down here on the base have changed my life and I have also changed theirs equally. I will be a different Kyle than you knew when I return. They have liked that I can drive because not thqat many people can drive here so they have me drive a lot. I want to say thanks for the prayers while I am on this mission trip down here.
Feel free to email me: kylepaddock@gmail.com

Who is God? ¿Quién es Dios?

He is the Alpha and Omega,

The walk to my feet,

The water to my life.

He is the voice of the voices,

The sight for our eyes,

The life to my bread.

He is the touch to my hands,

A pickup when I fall down,

The warmth to my body.

He is the shine in the Sun,

And the diamond in the rough.

He is the breath to the breathless,

The father to the fathers,

The flight to birds.

God is the beat to my life.

This is my God.

Para mis latino amigos

Él es el Alfa y la Omega,
El paseo a mis pies,
El agua de mi vida.
Él es la voz de las voces,
La visión de nuestros ojos,
La vida de mi pan.
Él es el toque de mis manos,
Una recogida cuando me caigo,
El calor de mi cuerpo.
Es el brillo en el Sol,
Y el diamante en bruto.
Él es el aliento de la sin respiración,
El padre de los padres,
El vuelo de las aves.
Dios es el ritmo de mi vida.
Este es mi Dios.

Hi, I am writing this email for my friends due to they do know English. I am I'm a YWAM class called DTS. We are just about to finish up our class. My DTS class is going on a outreach mission to Brazil. Most of the people in this class spent up to 1000 USD and 6 days via buss to get here for the class. Last night we were told that the mission outreach is going to cost 700 USD per person. We have roughly 15 people going and none of them have the money. I am asking you to pray about this and feel if you think God is asking you to tithe your money this week to this YWAM mission group to help bring the word of our Lord Jesus Christ to the people of Brazil. Any money would be a blessing. Please let me know if you would be interested in helping out my friends on their outreach for our Lord.
Thanks a lot,

Para mis latino amigos:

Hola, estoy escribiendo este e-mail para mis amigos, debido a que saben Inglés. Yo soy yo soy una clase de JUCUM llamado DTS. Estamos a punto de terminar la clase. Mi clase de DTS es ir a una misión de alcance a Brasil. La mayoría de la gente en esta clase invertido hasta 1000 dólares y 6 días a través de bus para llegar hasta aquí para la clase. Ayer por la noche se nos dijo que la misión de difusión va a costar 700 dólares por persona. Tenemos alrededor de 15 personas que van y ninguno de ellos tiene el dinero. Yo les pido que oren sobre esto y siento si crees que Dios te está pidiendo a diezmar su dinero esta semana para este grupo de la misión JUCUM para ayudar a llevar la palabra de nuestro Señor Jesucristo al pueblo de Brasil. Todo el dinero que sería una bendición. Por favor, hágamelo saber si usted estaría interesado en ayudar a mis amigos sobre su alcance para nuestro Señor.
Muchas gracias,
