Description: The phrase “Forgive Us Our Trespasses” reminds us that the Bible is a translated work. Jesus did not originally teach in English, so we rely on translations of His teachings. A detailed explanation of the translation history of this verse can be found at Desiring God, but I won’t delve into that here.
The central word in this part of the Lord’s Prayer is consistently translated as “Forgive.” In this section, Jesus instructs us to seek forgiveness, a need we all share because we all sin. After asking for our daily bread, we immediately turn to God to pardon our sins.
Forgiveness is a fundamental human need, central to both scripture and the gospel. Jesus’ mission was to offer forgiveness and restore our relationship with God. Through this prayer, He encourages us to seek forgiveness every time we pray.
The topic of forgiveness is vast and profound, but for this reflection, I’ll focus on three key points. This passage also highlights the importance of translation in understanding biblical teachings. For more on the history of this verse, you can explore resources like Desiring God.
Ultimately, the message remains clear: forgiveness is a cornerstone of our faith, and it’s essential to humbly seek it from God in our prayers.
