It is Latin for "Our Father", the Model Prayer: Matthew 6:9-13--"YOU must pray, then, this way:"'Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified. Let your kingdom come. Let your will take place, as in heaven, also upon earth. Give us today our bread for this day; and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And do not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the wicked one.' This was call 'the Model Prayer' because it is a outline for how to pray, not what words to use. First, we must give glory to God, using His name, (not Lord or God or any other 'titles' people use) Jehovah), praying for His will to take place. Then, each person has different needs, or 'daily bread' that they need to pray about. Afterwards, we ask for forgiveness for our sins, forgiveness if we have offended others, and forgiveness to those who have offended you. However, many people do not read: Matthew 6:7,8--'But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. So, do not make yourselves like them, for God YOUR Father knows what things YOU are needing before ever YOU ask him". There are many religions that repeat the same words over again, using 'rosary beads', and/or 'prayer wheels' (Buddist, Catholic, Hindu and many others). God wants sincere prayer, not 'often repeated' poetry.
This is an excellent, Bible based observation. I'm not sure about the )after the name Jehovah. It may be a typo of some kind. God's name, as revealed to his chosen people, at least at that time, Israel, was of course in Hebrew, not English. The Hebrew language is rather complicated and not as orderly as most languages today in that it only used consonants. Vowels were not used in print, but of course they were used in speaking. The vowels were inserted by the person speaking based on a number of things known about the word. The four consonants used to print in Hebrew the name of God was YHWH, which is generally pronounced as Yahweh, inserting the vowels a and e. Since few people speak Hebrew, or would want to (except perhaps Jews), it needed to be
transliterated into modern languages such as English. The Latin equivalent is JHVH, which leads to the most accepted pronunciation of the original Hebrew Text, or Jehovah, again inserting the vowels of e and o. But the Divine Name was held extremely sacred, as it should be of course. Over time, there seemed to be a reluctance to use the name and to write the name in scrolls out of fear of not pronouncing it correcting or inadvertently copying it wrong, despite the extreme care taken by scribes. In the Old Testament, the Divine Name is used thousands of times, based on the oldest original texts or copies, such as the Dead Sea Scrolls. Perhaps one of the 10 Commandments, "Do Not Take The Name Of The Lord In Vain" had something to do with the evolution of using the name, since the name itself is not used in the commandment, only Lord, which is not a name, but a title that is accorded to God the Almighty.
Of course as the centuries passed on, many religions were formed and many, many "Gods" were invented and worshipped by the various Gentile nations, while Israel held to the one true God, the Creator of Heaven & Earth, not imitation gods made of wood, metal or clay; gods that needed to be made by humans to have their existence, rather than the God who created all things.
The use of Jehovah in Christian times quickly diminished giving way to Jesus Christ, the Messiah & Deliverer of mankind sent to earth from God. Jesus then becomes the central figure of Christianity, and rightfully so as Jehovah primarily represents the time leading up to Christ, just as the Old Law Covenant was replaced with the New Covenant, which redeemed not only Jews but the entire human race from captivity to sin and death, if people exercised faith in the Redeemer, Jesus. Thus, Jesus becomes the focal point of the New Testament, representing his Father as a Son, but not just a little baby or child, as is often depicted by Christmas. He is the King of Kings, Lord of Lords. Powerfully, and valiantly He brings on the war of Armageddon to the Earth and Satan & his demon horde. He is the savior in every way possible. For those already dead throughout the centuries, he is the "resurrection & the life", for he then resurrects the dead as he did Lazarus as an example of his future powers and duties within his position as King of the Kingdom. (Messianic Kingom) As a result of this, and getting back to the original subject of The Lord's Prayer, this is the reason Jesus answers the question of how to pray. He does not actually use the Divine Name in his answer because he knows that the Jews, & soon the Gentiles, will need to get accustomed to placing their faith in him, and the name of Jesus must become the main theme for centuries and eternity to come. As such Jesus becomes the Lord God because he assumes all the duties & responsibilities assigned to him by his Father in order to extricate the hopeless human condition from its containment to sin and death, as well as perfectly displaying the personality of the Father. Thus, seeing and listening to Jesus, was in effect, the same as if they were seeing and listening to his Father. The two were in perfect unison.
However, these basic truths have been corrupted over the centuries by various forces meant to confuse the truth of God' purposes and deceive mankind.

What is the formula in Holy Orders?
Catholic AnswerFrom the old Rite (pre-Vatican II) for the ordination of priests: As said, the minister of the Sacrament of Holy Orders is the Bishop, and the matter of the Sacrament is the imposition of hands, which takes place during the beautiful ceremony of ordination. The form of the Sacrament is the words: Grant, we beseech Thee, Almighty Father, to these Thy servants, the dignity of the Priesthood; renew the spirit of holiness within them, so that they may hold from Thee, O God, the office of the second rank in Thy service and by the example of their behavior afford a pattern of holy living.Latin:Da, quaesumus, omnipotens Pater, in hos famulos tuos presbyterii dignitatem. Innova in visceribus eorum spiritum sanctitatis, ut acceptum a te, Deus, secundi meriti munus obtineant; censuramque morum exemplo suae conversationis insinuent.The Bishop imposes his hands on the man being ordained and then recites the prayer for ordination over him. The prayer itself is the formula.
When did the first monotheistic religions appear?
The first DESIGNATED monotheism is Atenism, started in Ancient Egypt by Amenhotep IV. Judaism is the oldest practiced today. Actually, monotheism probably goes back to preliterate times, but we just can't be sure since nothing was written down.
What was the religion of early peoples?
The entire ancient world possessed the original traditions of the Creation, the existence of the human soul and the afterlife, etc.One thing that researchers agree upon is that mankind has always believed in a Higher Power. Archaeology has shown that no ancient society ever existed that did not believe in the supernatural. (See:Can you show me that God exists?)Based upon a massive worldwide study of the most ancient inscriptions and the earliest levels of civilization, Dr. Wilhelm Schmidt (in his twelve-volume Der Ursprung Der Gottesidee) concluded that the original belief was monotheistic; a belief in One God (see footnote 1, below). It was a simple belief in the Creator (Dyeus Pater; Sky-Father) with no imagery of any kind. It gave way relatively quickly to polytheism and idolatry, but its traces could still be seen by the careful researcher, just as (for example) Proto-Indo European has left indelible marks within the later languages. Other traditions also are traceable worldwide, such as the religious significance of the number seven, and the immortality of the soul.The process by which the awareness of One God gave way to a belief in many gods, has been described by Scandinavian researchers (see footnote 2) as splitting ("Gottespaltung"): the people gradually viewed God's attributes of truth, righteousness, fertility etc., as separate from Him, and afterwards personified and worshiped the attributes themselves, until God was largely forgotten.According to Jewish tradition also, (Rashi commentary, Genesis 4:26), monotheism is more ancient than polytheism. Maimonides (see footnote 3, below) describes the process by which polytheism began: "A couple of centuries after the Creation, mankind made a great mistake. They said that since God had created the stars and spheres and placed them on high, accordingly it is fitting for people to praise and glorify them and to treat them with honor. They perceived this to be the will of God, that people should magnify and honor the stars. They began to praise and glorify them with words, and prostrate themselves before them, because by doing so, they would (according to their false conception) be indirectly honoring God too."This descent into polytheism contributed to the weakening of any sense of religious belief and was also used as justification for excessive and licentious behavior, since the caprices which were narrated concerning the idols were adopted as an excuse to imitate their putative actions. See: Cruelties of the polytheists.It was the original belief which Abraham reinstated through his teaching of ethical monotheism.Footnotes:1) Albright, "From the Stone Age," p.170; and J.A.

Wilhelm Schmidt proposed the theory of original monotheism as the origin of religion in the world saying that the earliest religions were based on one distant high God?
It was the Scottish anthropologist Andrew Lang who first proposed the idea of a high god that he believed existed among some of the simplest of contemporary tribes. The noted anthropologist Wilhelm Schmidt accepted and defended that hypothesis, which he no doubt felt was in line with his beliefs as a Catholic priest.Wikipedia explains that primitive monotheism, "the hypothesis of a monotheistic 'Urreligion' from which non-monotheistic religions degenerated, is diametrically opposed to the evolutionary view of religion, another hypothesis which holds that religion progressed from simple forms to complex: first preanimism, then animism, totemism, polytheism and finally monotheism."Schmidt's hypothesis of primitive monotheism was debated during much of the first half of the twentieth century, after which the hypothesis was rejected by academics. Most anthropologists have abandoned all evolutionary schemes like those of Schmidt and Pettazoni, for the historical development of religion, saying that they have also found monotheistic beliefs existing alongside other religious beliefs.
Why were religions created?
Basic answer; the Pre-Adamite were without spirit of light from the celestial kingdom and the spirit of darkness (Devil) ruled the earth. The creations of God conjoined the two kingdoms so that mankind might now have a loving spirit of light from God. Thus, the belief in, or the knowledge of God started to take place in humans. Ever since Adams expulsion from Paradise, the infected amnesia-tic mankind required written accounts of what occurred. From this, the Hebrew religion started. However, other religions were in existence prior to Adam, yet this is a very deep and complicating subject and requires the knowledge of the secret doctrine of the Bible to understand.
