Bible Question (short): the 5th commandment |
Question (full): Can anybody explain the meaning of the promise given in the 5th commandment - honour your parents? This promise was made straight direct to Israelite concerning Canaan (I guess?). How should we view this promise nowadays? Does "live long" mean physical longetivity? (I don't think so) If so, I think it wouldn't be a blessing in today's world with so many social problems. Thanks for helping me to understand this. |
