The little work of St. Cyprian's which is here presented in an English translation is in a very true and real sense an " EARLY CHURCH CLASSIC," for it was early accorded by the Church the position of the recognized standard treatise on the LORD'S PRAYER. So high was the esteem in which it was held that St. Hilary of Poitiers, writing just one hundred years later (a.D. 3 54), considered himself relieved from the task of commenting on the LORD'S prayer when, in the course of his Exposition on St. Matthew, he came to Chapter vi. 9-13, preferring rather to send his readers to St. Cyprian's well-known book.
