Why Some Bibles End the Lord’s Prayer Differently
from Daily Hope with Pastor John S. Dickerson · host John S. Dickerson
Why do some Bibles end the Lord’s Prayer differently? In this Daily Hope devotional, Pastor John S. Dickerson wraps up the journey through the Lord’s Prayer by looking at the final phrase many Christians know by heart: “For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.” Some Bible translations include this ending, while others place it in a footnote because it appears in many manuscripts but not the oldest ones. But whether this line was part of the earliest manuscript or added later by believers, it beautifully summarizes the whole prayer. God’s kingdom is what we live for. God’s power is what we live through. God’s glory is what lasts forever. As you pray through the Lord’s Prayer, let this final line lift your eyes back to worship. Jesus wins in the end, His kingdom will prevail, His power is here to help you today, and His glory will last forever. Text “DAILY” to 71093 to receive Daily Hope videos sent to your phone every day.
