John Chrysostom
Catena Aurea · Matthäusevangelium 6
Mt 6, 9English original
After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Or; He bids us in praying beg that God may be glorified in our life; as if we were to say, Make us to live so that all things may glorify Thee through us. For hallowed signifies the same as glorified. It is a petition worthy to be made by man to God, to ask nothing before the glory of the Father, but to postpone all things to His praise.
