Reverence for parents is a timeless principle that teaches respect, obedience, and humility. To ‘fear’ one’s parents is to hold them in high regard, recognizing their wisdom and authority. This respect is foundational to a life that values family and tradition. By honoring our parents, we learn the importance of discipline and the beauty of obedience. This reverence extends to our values and beliefs, reminding us to respect not only our family but also the principles that guide us. Living with this respect creates a home filled with peace and love, a place where each member feels valued and honored.
Proverbs 29:15
The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 1:8
My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:
Proverbs 19:26
He that wasteth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is a son that causeth shame, and bringeth reproach.
