⁴神 说 ：当孝敬 父 母 ；又 说：咒骂 父 母 的，必治 死 他。

⁴ For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

⁴ Verse 4. Honour thy father and mother] This word was taken in

great latitude of meaning among the Jews: it not only meant

respect and submission, but also to take care of a person, to

nourish and support him, to enrich. See Nu 22:17; Jud 13:17;

1Ti 5:17. And that this was the sense of the law, as it

respected parents, see De 27:16, and See Clarke on Ex 20:12.
