“Honour” implies respect, obedience and care for the parents’ needs.
Exodus 20:12 “Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live for a long time in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
Deuteronomy 5:16 “Honor your father and your mother as the LORD your God has commanded you. Then you will live for a long time, and things will go well for you in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
Leviticus 19:3 “Respect your mother and father. Observe my days of rest as holy days. I am the LORD your God.
Ephesians 6:1–3 Children, obey your parents because you are Christians. This is the right thing to do. “Honor your father and mother that everything may go well for you, and you may have a long life on earth.” This is an important commandment with a promise.
Mark 10:19 You know the commandments: Never murder. Never commit adultery. Never steal. Never give false testimony. Never cheat. Honor your father and mother.”
This honor is due especially to mothers in old age Proverbs 23:22 Listen to your father since you are his son, and do not despise your mother because she is old.
Penalties for disobeying parents
Exodus 21:15 “Whoever hits his father or mother must be put to death.
Proverbs 20:20 The lamp of the person who curses his father and mother will be snuffed out in total darkness.
Matthew 15:4
For example, God said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and ‘Whoever curses father or mother must be put to death.’
Following Jesus Christ involves a commitment to him even deeper than love of one’s parents
Luke 14:26 “If people come to me and are not ready to abandon their fathers, mothers, wives, children, brothers, and sisters, as well as their own lives, they cannot be my disciples.
Matthew 10:37 “The person who loves his father or mother more than me does not deserve to be my disciple. The person who loves a son or daughter more than me does not deserve to be my disciple.
