Note 12 — Chapter II
Reading edition
Dr. Shedd (Addenda to Lange’s Matthew) says—“Probably it was the prevailing custom of the Christians in the East, from the beginning to pray the Lord’s Prayer, with the Doxology.” It certainly appears in earliest Syriac version (Peschito, so called, of second century). It does not appear in the Wyclif of 1380. It will be found, however, in the Tyndale of 1534—which I am led to believe is its first appearance in an accredited English translation.
