Article 1 IN THE OLD TESTAMENT

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

2568
In the Old Testament, the revelation of prayer comes between the fall and the
restoration of man, that is, between God’s sorrowful call to his first
children: “Where are you? . . . What is this that you have
done?”³ and the response of God’s only Son on coming into the
world: “Lo, I have come to do your will, O God.”⁴ Prayer is
bound up with human history, for it is the relationship with God in historical
events.
