The Italian Episcopal Conference It established - obviously in full, total, collegial and synodal freedom of God's children -, modification of Prayer Our father in the new edition of the Roman Missal [cf.. WHO], where the phrase "lead us not into temptation" becomes "not into temptation". Wanting, they could use the expression "and lead us not into temptation", But, at the “exposure” used by the Waldensian Evangelical Community, They have preferred an expression of “abandonment”, perhaps considering that ever, as in this modern age, we have abandoned ourselves. The substance, however, remains the same: the Catholics, like the Protestants, They have altered expression that is rooted in the most ancient texts, as we shall soon see. E and receive, as the seconds, both they have claimed: the return to the true origins of the texts.

.

The Church Father Tertullian [Carthage 155 - Carthage 227], explains that the Our father, Prayer that the Word of God Himself taught us [cf.. Mt 11, 1] "It is the synthesis of the whole Gospel". This statement should lead at least to the use of the total caution when even touch a single sigh of this.

.

As for the phrase "offending" which recites: «And lead us not into temptation» [and lead us not into temptation], in speech n. 57 dedicated to the Passo del Beato Matteo Evangelista [cf.. Mt 6, 9-13], the Holy Doctor of Bishop Augustine of Hippo Church is very clear and thorough in explaining that God can not do evil, however, it allows that it operates through Satan and the fallen angels with him which implement. Of course, God does not tempt anyone to sin, however, it allows the forces of evil induce Christians to fall into it. All of this, It is contained in the beginning of creation, fundamental assumption of which are the freedom and free will of man. Equally enlightening comment Our father and the sentence “offending” it is given to us by the Holy Doctor of the Church Thomas Aquinas, that tracing largely the Ipponate says:

.

"God perhaps leads to evil, When do we say “Do not take us in tentation”? Reply it says that God causes evil in the sense that He permits, since because of its many previous sins subtracts the man to grace, failed which falls into sin ' [cf.. San Tommaso Aquino, Comment on the Our Father, 6].

Before the Hipponate e dell’Aquinate, another Father of the Church, The holy bishop Cyprian of Carthage [Carthage 210 - Carthage 258], He explains that God can give power to the Devil in two ways: for our punishment, If we have sinned, or for our glorification, but if we accept the evidence. Is this, says the holy Bishop and Doctor [cf.. Latin patrology of the Migne – Vol. IV (C)yprianus carthaginensis The Lord's Prayer], It was for example the case of Job: "There, everything belongs to me I will deliver; just do not keep your hand on him " [Gb 12, 1]. The Lord Himself, at the time of his passion, dice: "You would have no power over me if it had not been given you from above" [cf.. GV 19, 11]. So when we pray for not enter into temptation, we remember our weakness, lest anyone consider complacently, no one become proud insolently, no one attribute the glory of his loyalty or his passion, when the Lord himself teaches us humility when he says:

.

«Watch and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit is burning, but the flesh is weak " [MC 14, 38].

.

Another great Father of the Church, Origene [Alexandria 185 - Threw 254], to comment on the "And lead us not into temptation"Part of the Blessed Apostle Paul writing to the people of Corinth says:

.

"No temptation has overtaken you that is not human; God is faithful and will not let you be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also make the way out and the strength to bear it " [The Cor 10, 13].

.

Clarifies so Origen:

.

"What, then, does the command of the Savior to pray to lead us not into temptation, since God himself almost tempts us? He says Judith, addressing not only to the elders of his people, but to all who would read these words: "Remember what worked with Abraham, and how he tried Isaac, and all that happened to Jacob in Mesopotamia of Syria who was tending the flock of Laban, his mother's brother; because not as cleansed them to try their hearts, He - the Lord - that plagues amend it to those who approach him, punish us too ". Even David, when he says: "Many are the afflictions of the righteous", It confirms that this is true for all the right. The Apostle, around you, He says in Acts "so that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God" [cf.. At 14, 22]» [Origene, Commentary on the Our Father].

However it is not excluded that in the near future, a team exegetes See to it as soon as possible also to change the page of the Gospel of the Blessed Evangelist Matthew tells of the devil that tempts man Jesus in the desert [cf.. Mt 4, 1-11], where the divine Son did not approach the Divine Father wondering: "And do not forsake the temptation», place that the Creator allowed Satan to induce him into temptation.

.

They will then intervene biblical scholars to rewrite and update also various biblical passages in accordance with the Directive new management e according to the "epoch-making revolution" underway, seen that God tests us and strengthens us by allowing us to be tempted. We can not forget that man is immersed in temptations since its fall triggering the entry into the scene of the world and of humanity's original sin. We read in the Old texts testamentary: "Son, If you come to serve the Lord, prepared the temptation » [Sir 2,1]. But above all remember that the Church, in hardly suspect documents, since it is one of the constitutions of Vatican II, many thought the council of councils, Remember that the temptation is tied to the value of the freedom that man is the "sign of the divine image" [The joy and hope, 8].

.

Another text to be corrected is surely that of the Letter to the Hebrews where the Author, taking literature of Psalms, It explains how the same men dared to groped God:

.

do not harden your hearts
as in the rebellion,
the day of temptation in the wilderness,
I tried putting myself where your fathers tested,
though I had seen my works for forty years [EB 3, 8-9].

.

So let's go to the oldest sources, because for half a century now we have been spectators and victims of the deeds and the various "revolutions" of those who want “go back to basics”. Several times I have explained in my writings that certain theologians, under the pretext of origins that actually never existed in ancient history, Instead they want to impose their modern thought. But if we want to talk of origins, then it suffices to say that the Prayer Our father, in the ancient and original Aramaic text, recital:

.

.

…It deserves to always have a good dictionary

The phrase "offending" proclaims the exact words letter: "And lead us not into temptation".

.

When the original text Our father it was translated from Aramaic to greek, to avoid loading the phrase with a long circumlocution is used only a verb meaning "lead" or "let":

.

.

And if the greek is not an opinion, the "offending" phrase literally translated reads just: "Do not take us in tentation". (D)these two texts arises the third translation, the Latin, altogether fitting and true to the original greek text:

.

Our father who art in heaven:

Hallowed be thy name;

Thy kingdom come;

Thy will be done,

As in the sky, and in the ground.

Give us this day our daily bread;

And forgive us our trespasses,

as we forgive those who trespass against us;

And lead us not into temptation,

but free nos a malo.

.

To lovers of “back to the origins” it should be remembered that the phrase "indicted" "Do not lead us into temptation", comes from the Greek εἰσενέγκῃς, from which the faithful Latin translation induce, that the Italian language is just as faithfully translated induce. That said it is a must and ask rigor: realize the fans back to the very origins, that, these circumstances, this “mistake” Today finally corrected, It dates back to the times of the first apostolic times?

.

If the patristic texts known for centuries are those currently known, If the ancient languages ​​and their faithful translations are those that are, this is when each, without being induced to any temptation, He can draw from itself its own conclusions, given that in the name of an unspecified return to basics has altered that original is such that since the Aramaic and Greek remotest origins, and that before the Latin and well before the current modern languages.

The problem perhaps lies behind this latest quarrel, I'm afraid it has little theological and much sociopolitical, all with more or less clear strategies. Or to better explain the problem: the Catholic Church is experiencing a period perhaps most tragic of its entire history. We are in a climate of great doctrinal decay from which came to life a deep moral crisis, because the moral crisis, the Church always comes from a doctrinal crisis. It goes without saying that not a day goes by now, without some bishop or priest you do not jump to the headlines almost always very serious scandals. The decadence and moral crisis, Priests from the College ended up infecting the College of Bishops, and below the College of Cardinals. Our credibility crisis now ranges between the tragic and the comic-grotesque. It is therefore strange that at a time without historical precedents as what we are experiencing, you do not find something better to do than remodel the words of Our father he was born in Gloria.

.

This story recalls the story of the dictator Saddam Hussein accused of hiding arsenals of weapons of mass destruction. Those weapons were never found, But, with all the political and economic implications that followed, there have been two wars in the Gulf that have destabilized the political and economic structures. Like this, soon after, there was talk of … of weapons of deterrence.

.

Faced with a moral and doctrinal decline Without precedents like the one we are experiencing, it seems that some have found nothing better to do than use a word of Our father and the opening of Gloria as of of weapons of deterrence, convinced and sure that nobody would have understood and discovered their game …

.

and non eisenegkῃs us into temptation

And lead us not into temptation, but free nos a malo.

And don't lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen !
