Exegesis on Matthew 6:9-1
Matthew 6:9-13 New International Version (NIV)
9 “This,

then, is how you should pray:

“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your

kingdom come,

your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give
12 And

us today our daily bread.
forgive us our debts,

as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And

lead us not into temptation,[a]

but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’
As one reads this paragraph once again with the parts of speech of each word, one
will notice that there is a powerful and most be understood message. The main idea been
passed across in this passage is prayer. In fact in bibles which have sub-headings, the
subheading of this verse is prayer. The book of Mathew chapter 6 was Jesus teaching on the
core principles that Christians should generally have. The first to the fourth verses of chapter

5 talks about giving to the needy. After the prayer teaching in verses five to fifteen, verses
sixteen to eighteen to talks about fasting. Verses nineteen to twenty-four of the same book
talks about the treasures in heaven while verses twenty-five to thirty-four talks about
Christians having not to worry about anything in this world as long as they have Jesus Christ
as their Lord and Saviour.
Verses five to eight are related to this passage. Mathew 6: 5-8 says 5 “And when you
pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on
the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in
full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is
unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you
pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their
many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask
him”. Thus verse gives the Christian what they should actually do before reciting the prayer.
The verses clearly criticize the any hypocrisy and showing off when praying. When praying a
Christian should be as humble as possible. Prayer should also be done in secret and not with
many words. This is a great teaching to all the people who like to shout out and criticize other
people when they are praying (Boring, 1995).
