Understanding the 'Our Father' - Dr. Scott Hahn - Deep in History

In this lecture from our 2009 Deep in History conference, Dr. Scott Hahn examines the seven petitions of the Lord's Prayer, and takes a look at why this prayer is placed in the liturgy of the Mass after the consecration, and before the distribution of Holy Communion. He looks at the context in which Jesus teaches the prayer during the Sermon on the Mount, the significance of referring to God as "Father," and more. Dr. Hahn argues that the 'Our Father' is a prayer that we pray much, but ponder little; and argues that a better understanding of these words, which come directly from the lips of Jesus, can lead us to a deeper appreciation for our relationship with God.

@@whatisinpi7689 Please elaborate. While I enjoyed this I kept having flashes of, The Plot Against the Church by Maurice Pinay (pen name for a group of Catholic clerics that attempted to thwart the usurpation of Holy Mother Church via Vatican II/Novus Ordo). The culprits are named along with their short biographies and the plot. The attack from within. There is a free PDF version online. No surprise they were all, Communists, Jews and Masons. The diabolical result is history yet the Church fathers and pre-Vat II magesterium along with the true faith live on. Same with ex-Communist, Bella Dodd's testimony before a US Senate committee 1952-53. Free PDF online. Do you have a source/article for Hahn and our modern apologists?

[@salskars6637]

@@spasjt - You're deflecting. The "agenda" is, Vatican II. You're beguiled if you haven't realized this or you are not educated in Catholicism, dogma and scripture. An elaboration on the Lord's prayer (an excellent elaboration btw) does not change this fact, it only masks it. The Vatican II Sect, is not Catholicism, it is the End Times Counter-church. The wheat are truly being separated from the tares. The Catholic remnant are holding the faith and are validated by scripture, dogma and the magisterium (pre-Vat II).

[@nshimirimanarenatus272]

We have prayed our father many times but too tittle have we pondered about it. I am moved shamefully for the many times I just recited it for the respect and mere trust in He who gave it to us. Thanks God even in ignorance of your son, you always answered. In many circumstances I did not witness but buffled. " I have nothing I can do except to pray for them". Now I understand I feel like crying for the many instances i dspised such prayer. I am shaken for little was I aware that it is about uniting my will with his, my weakness with His sthrengh and power, my time with eternity. My heart will ever be awake whenever my soul recites the Lord's prayer. God you are our father I am your son. Thy name, that will , thy Kingdom , Give us , lead us not. What awesome beauty of the depths in those seven petitions.

First they don't want anyone know about Ukraine, me and Vatican. If they win China , they will attack Russia after Russia is lost. Suddenly, they attack India by the tanks same as Russia attack Ukraine while Ukraine didn't repair on Feb 2022 and then they will attack Japan, Viet Nam, Korea, Taiwan , Middle East and Africa. Because We don't have the paper work about the win but the paperwork just say we corporate with them . If they are serious . They must tell Taiwan, Philippines, Korea and Japan stop fighting. The reason they don't say because it is a best chance to attack those countries due to low weapons. Anyway, I have a question to Taiwan. Do you have a contract with them that Taiwan will take over China or China is belong to them either half of the land??,,?,??? Because their tanks will enter into the India .Another word, their army is on our land. Lastly; after they United all nations. They will announce to the public about the Vatican But we already forgot the bad deed of Vatican by that time same as Zeleski will claim himself Jesus. The bad thing to us , we might become their slaves because we don't have any one help us. Do you remember the Black slaves in the History.??

[@AKIABBRA]

Bro. Hahn, I am not a Catholic, but I love the passion, sincerity and how you make the Bible come alive when you speak! I have always listened to EWTN and have so admired you. I wanted to ask, why the last line of the Lord's prayer is always omitted, because we are told not to add to nor take away from scripture. I have pondered this for years. Most sincerely,

[@annettea4334]

The last ligne, the doxology, isn't in the Bible but comes from early Church Tradition and can be found in the Didache. At Mass, the priest usually says the doxology and the congregation replies "Amen". The C of E added it definitely to the Lord's Prayer during the Elizabethan era to mark a difference with the CC. So oddly enough Protestants always follow a Catholic Tradition that is not always followed by Catholics. Hope this helps.
