1 | Spare the rod, spoil the child | Prov 13:24 | Searcher56 | 178362 | ||
Scripture ... Pro 10:13, 13:24, 22:15, 23:13-14, 29:15 ... "He who withholds his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him diligently" (Pro 13:24). "Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of discipline will remove it far from him" (Pro 22:15) "Do not hold back discipline from the child, Although you strike him with the rod, he will not die.You shall beat him with the rod, And deliver his soul from Sheol." (Pro 23:13-14). Go ask Elisabeth about her discipline of Valerie. DO NOT just use the New Testament in your study - it will be incomplete. Before for you continue, I suggest you study "rod" and "discipline" in the whole Bible. Until then, fare thee well. S |

2 | Spare the rod, spoil the child | Prov 13:24 | MJH | 178401 | ||
"Do not hold back discipline from the child, Although you strike him with the rod, he will not die.You shall beat him with the rod, And deliver his soul from Sheol." (Pro 23:13-14). Again... Child should be translated "young man" and he is delivered from Sheol (death) because the command of God was that such a child be stoned to death by the community if he did not obey and became a drunkered, etc.... That command to stone the "son" was the purpose that the proverb stated was written. The other passages speaks of "the rod of disciplne" which does NOT suggest striking. MJH |
