Julie: Fact: No, I do not know of any reference in the Bible to an age that children should be encouraged to live on their own. Opinion: However, I do not think that in Bible times children were still single and living with their parents when, for example, they were 21 years old. I don't think they were living off their parents while working a part-time job, spending their money on a new chariot, taking no responsibility, sleeping till noon, etc. Grace to you, John P.S. How’s that for labeling my opinion AS opinion? |

You ask is there a reference in the Bible to an age that children should be encouraged to live on their own. I don’t believe so. 1Cor. 11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. I looked threw some of the Old Testament (KJV) and came across some help’s. Here are children not living at home since child birth. EXODUS 2:6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children. 10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water. 1SAM 1:27 For this child I prayed; and the LORD hath given me my petition which I asked of him: 28 Therefore also I have lent him to the LORD; as long as he liveth he shall be lent to the LORD. And he worshipped the LORD there. Sometimes we're put out of our home sooner then we want to be. GENSES 4:12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth. 13 ¶ And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater than I can bear. 14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me. GEN 37:2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being SEVENTEEN years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report. 27 Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content. 28 Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt. GENESIS 27:42 And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee. 43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran; 44 And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury turn away; Sometimes we stay with parent’s or parent’s stay with us so we can take care of them. RUTH 1:4 And Naomi said unto her two daughters in law, Go, return each to her mother's house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me. And they lifted up their voice, and wept again: and Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth clave unto her. 2:2 And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my daughter. 3 And she went, and came, and gleaned in the field after the reapers: and her hap was to light on a part of the field belonging unto Boaz, who was of the kindred of Elimelech. Saul and Jonathan, father and son are mentioned from 1Sam 13:2 to 11Sam.21:14 but I don’t think there is anything mentioned of Jonathan living with his father, threw all this time. Leave to merry GENESIS 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. JUDGES 4:1 And Samson went down to Timnath, and saw a woman in Timnath of the daughters of the Philistines. 3 Then his father and his mother said unto him, Is there never a woman among the daughters of thy brethren, or among all my people, that thou goest to take a wife of the uncircumcised Philistines? And Samson said unto his father, Get her for me; for she pleaseth me well. These are just a few. Again I believe the answer to your Qestion is NO. Hope this helps, God Bless You, Carol |
