Excerpt from The Ten Commandments and the Lord's Prayer: A Sociological Study The Lord's Prayer voices forth the response of human nature as moved by the Divine Savior; it recognizes its deep need and lofty possibilities. The Law and the Prayer together describe the individual man in God's sight, the grandeur and loneliness of personality. But they are not content with God and the individual man; there must be other men. And thus they provide for the ideal Society, when all men shall regard God as their Father and their fellow men as brothers. I send forth this book with the great design of helping men to see the glory of God and our own nobility, as set forth in this Law and Prayer of our being.
