Study Lenses

The verse centers on "reign", "come", "pass", "heaven", and "earth". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "reign" and "come", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 9's "thus therefore pray ye Our Father who..." into verse 11's "Our appointed bread give us to-day...", so "reign" and "come" belong inside that flow. In Matthew context, the local focus is Christ, faith, and discipleship.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "reign" and "come" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
