6:13 Jewish parallels suggest that “Do not bring us into temptation” may be idiomatic for “Do not let us be overcome by temptation” or “Do not let our faith be tested beyond what it can bear.” James 1:2-3,13-14 shows that “temptation” can have a negative or positive purpose—the one an enticement to sin, the other the strengthening of faith. God pursues only the latter, and Satan only the former (see 1Co 10:13).
