Abstract

The Prayer "Our Father ..." has a special place among the many prayers contained in the liturgical books of the Orthodox Church. It is a real gem that was left to us by the Son of God, Jesus Christ. This prayer became the foundation for all the subsequent compositions of prayers as well as the inspiration for spiritual asceticism and for spiritual growth of every Christian. The article analysis this prayer from various perspectives and approaches attempting to draw on its main thematic features.
