Deliver Us From Evil A Protest Against The Change In The Last Petition Of The Lord's Prayer, Adopted In The Revised Version (1881)

Deliver Us From Evil: A Protest Against The Change In The Last Petition Of The Lord�������s Prayer, Adopted In The Revised Version (1881) is a book written by Frederic Charles Cook. The book is a critique of the changes made to the Lord's Prayer in the Revised Version (1881) of the Bible, specifically the alteration of the final petition from ""Deliver us from evil"" to ""Deliver us from the evil one"". Cook argues that this change is unnecessary and alters the meaning of the prayer, as the original phrase encompasses all forms of evil, not just the influence of Satan. The book provides a detailed analysis of the history and interpretation of the Lord's Prayer, as well as a defense of the traditional wording. Overall, Deliver Us From Evil is a thoughtful exploration of the significance of language in religious texts, and a call to preserve the integrity of one of Christianity's most beloved prayers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
