1 xplain [ ]'s of last line of Lord's Pray Matt 6:13 zonak 64136
  Thank you Searcher--I was pleased to find an answer so soon.
A followup question then--how important is it then as to whether or not these words continue to be the words of jesus? Is the last line legitimate? Yes, it is a wonderful way to close a wonderful prayer--but what if these words were added by man in his arrogance? That would be a close parrallel to the story of Uzzah and King David who took it upon themselves to change God's specific instructions about transporting the Ark of the Covenant as King David marched triumphantly into Jerusalem. (2 Samuel 6: 1-8) Instead of carrying it on two poles, on the shoulders of priests, he had the Ark loaded into an oxcart, pulled by oxen. Uzzah was struck dead as he touched the Ark when the cart threatened to overturn. He angered God by changing God's instructions! Has the Lord's prayer been handled in a similar way, by mankind, however well intentioned, by adding this closing?
