St Philaret of Moscow, in Blackmore, 1845

Part 2, 11. On the Seventh Petition

Q. What do we ask in these words of the prayer, deliver us from evil?

A. We ask for deliverance from all evil that can reach us in the world, which since the fall lieth in wickedness; 1 John v. 19; but especially from the evil of sin, and from the evil suggestions and snares of the spirit of evil, which is the devil.
