LORD'S PRAYER
Since the beginning of Christianity, The Lord's Prayer has occupied an important place in the lives of Jesus's disciples, for it is the prayer Jesus Himself taught them. This volume helps readers understand how this classic and beloved text can speak afresh to the life of the church today.
Wright's careful exposition of the Lord's Prayer effectively joins exegetical study to theological reflection and spiritual practice. Both detailed and accessible, this book presents the prayer within the contexts of Jewish Scripture and tradition as an example of 'divine pedagogy. On nearly every page, I encountered fresh insights about how, through His prayer, Jesus teaches about God, Himself, and disciples then and now. A must-read for all students of Scripture.
