Context of Luke 11:2

1Once Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he stopped praying, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray as John taught his disciples.” Jesus told them, “When you pray, say this: Father, let your name be kept holy. Let your kingdom come. 3Give us our bread day by day. 4Forgive us as we forgive everyone else. Don’t allow us to be tempted.”
