Our Father, Who Art on Earth

In this unusual and captivating commentary, acclaimed poet, priest, and professor José Tolentino Mendonça casts a keen and probing eye on that most beautiful of prayers, the Our Father. He goes far beyond the usual line-by-line biblical and spiritual exegesis and offers readers a cultural, literary, and indeed spiritual commentary couched in a compelling style that also reveals his poetic gift. Elie Wiesel, Raymond Carver, Angelus Silesius, St. Augustine, Cervantes, St. Paul, Thomas Merton, T. S. Eliot, Simone Weil, Ernest Hemingway-these are only a few of the names the author references in his commentary. However, the decisive and fundamental reference is to the word of the Bible. Writing with grace, the author opens up the neglected but rich messages of the Our Father to all believing Christians and all people of good will. Book jacket.

Friendship is a universal experience and represents for each individual an irreplaceable process of humanization and hope. Nevertheless, we also need wisdom, including a spiritual wisdom, which will enable us to live it more fully. 'Our friends are part of our life, ' wrote Raïssa Maritain. But there is more to it than that: they widen our lives, helping to make them more luminous and authentic; they offer us lightness and depth; they pur...
