Concerning the Lord's prayer, it was based on the ancient Jewish prayer
called the Kiddush.  It is a prayer of sanctification, separating the
prayee from the profane of the world to a worship of the Almighty.
Yes Jesus did in fact pray the Kiddush as well as the Sh'ma, De 6:4...
We have no way of knowing today if he enlarged upon the Kiddush, or if
the Kiddush included the expansion and was lost within Judaism because
of the Roman destruction.
But you do bring up an interesting subject just before Easter....
Glad to have your comments
