AN EXPOSITION OF THE Lords prayer, in the way of Catechism. Serving for ignorant people, by M. Perkins. Matth. 6. vers. 9. After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father, &c.

The occasion, and so also the coherence of these words with the former is this. The Evangelist Matthew setting down the sermons and sayings of our Saviour Christ keeps not this course to propound every thing as it was done or spoken: but sometime he sets down that first, which was done last; and that last which was done before: according as the spirit of God directed him. Which thing is verified in these words, where the prayer is mentioned; yet the occasion wherefore our Saviour Christ taught his Disciples to pray, is not here specified. But in S. Luk. 11. 1. the occasion of these words is evident. For there it is said that the disciples of our Saviour knowing that John taught his disciples to pray, made request to their master that he would do the same to them likewise.
