Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live!

Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live?

But Moses and Aaron fell with their faces to the ground. They cried out,“ God, you are the God who gives life and breath to all living things. Will you be angry with the whole community when only one man sins?”

“ Lord, you are the God who gives life and breath to all living things. Please put someone in charge of this community.

God created the heavens and stretches them out. The Lord spreads out the earth with everything that grows on it. He gives breath to its people. He gives life to those who walk on it. He says to his servant,

People give birth to people. But the Spirit gives birth to spirit.

“ May anyone who brings shame on their father or mother be under the Lord’ s curse.” Then all the people will say,“ Amen!”

He holds the life of every creature in his hand. He controls the breath of every human being.

This is a prophecy. It is the Lord’ s message about Israel. The Lord spreads out the heavens. He lays the foundation of the earth. He creates the human spirit within a person. He says,

“ Honor your father and mother. Then you will live a long time in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

So make yourselves humble. Put yourselves under God’s mighty hand. Then he will honor you at the right time.

“‘ All of you must have respect for your mother and father. You must always keep my Sabbath days. I am the Lord your God.

“ One person makes fun of their father. Another doesn’t honor their mother when she is old. The ravens of the valley will peck out their eyes. Then the vultures will eat them.

Remember your Creator before you return to the dust you came from. Remember him before your spirit goes back to God who gave it.

So obey God. Stand up to the devil. He will run away from you.

Suppose someone has a very stubborn son. He doesn’t obey his father and mother. And he won’t listen to them when they try to correct him.Then his parents will take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town.They will say to the elders,“ This son of ours is very stubborn. He won’t obey us. He eats too much. He’s always getting drunk.”Then all the people in his town will put him to death by throwing stones at him. Get rid of that evil person. All the Israelites will hear about it. And they will be afraid to disobey their parents.

Lord, people find the will to live because you keep your promises. And my spirit also finds life in your promises. You brought me back to health. You let me live.

Children, obey your parents as believers in the Lord. Obey them because it’s the right thing to do.Scripture says,“ Honor your father and mother.” That is the first commandment that has a promise.“ Then things will go well with you. You will live a long time on the earth.”( Deuteronomy 5:16)Fathers, don’t make your children angry. Instead, instruct them and teach them the ways of the Lord as you raise them.

Be humble in front of the Lord. And he will lift you up.

They have made fun of fathers and mothers alike. They have crushed outsiders. They have treated badly the children whose fathers have died. They have done the same thing to widows.

“ A son honors his father. A slave honors his master. If I am a father, where is the honor I should have? If I am a master, where is the respect you should give me?” says the Lord who rules over all.“ You priests look down on me.“ But you ask,‘ How have we looked down on you?’

But David was a prophet. He knew that God had made a promise to him. God had promised that he would make someone in David’s family line king after him.

The good news is about God’s Son. He was born into the family line of King David.

The founders of our nation belong to them. The Messiah comes from their family line. He is God over all. May he always be praised! Amen.

I am so concerned about my people, who are members of my own race. I am ready to be cursed, if that would help them. I am even willing to be separated from Christ.

I will not find fault with my people forever. I will not always be angry with them. If I were, I would cause their spirits to grow weak. The people I created would faint away.
