Our Father
A Biblical Meditation of the Lord’s Prayer
Sr Claire Waddelove OSB
This original and imaginative treatment of the Our Father plumbs the scriptural depths
of this prayer, so beloved of Christians. The Biblical meditation of each chapter
is further enriched by introductory pages presenting the author's reflections and
explanations, drawing on the treasures of the Church's patrimony: her liturgy, the
Fathers of the Church, popes and saints. This is authentic spirituality, deeply rooted
in the word of God: living and life-giving, nourishment for heart and soul, enlightenment
for the mind. Taste and see!
'Sister Claire Waddelove is following in a fine tradition
of commentary on the Our Father, including some of the greatest saints.' Fr Timothy
