Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an enquiry into the reasons behind the Revisers' alteration of âDeliver us from evilâ to âDeliver us from the evil oneâ in the Lord's Prayer. The author makes a case for retaining the rendering evil, not the evil one, in light of Biblical evidence, the usage of versions from early Christian history, and the teachings of the Early Church Fathers. The author argues that scriptural teaching, especially that of St John, suggests that the evil one is vanquished and is not one to be delivered from, but evil remains an ever-present danger. The author explores linguistic subtleties, historical context, and a broad range of interpretations to offer scholarly reasons for maintaining the original language of the text. This book will appeal to readers interested in Biblical interpretation, the history of the Lord's Prayer, and the continuing relevance of scripture in modern times.
