Family Life and Sexual Prohibitions“‘If anyone curses his father and mother he must be put to death. He has cursed his father and mother; his blood guilt is on himself.

‘Cursed is the one who disrespects his father and mother.’ Then all the people will say,‘Amen!’

Listen to your father who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old.

The eye that mocks at a father and despises obeying a mother– the ravens of the valley will peck it out and the young vultures will eat it.

For God said,‘Honor your father and mother’ and‘Whoever insults his father or mother must be put to death.’

But if a widow has children or grandchildren, they should first learn to fulfill their duty toward their own household and so repay their parents what is owed them. For this is what pleases God.

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people of his own, so that you may proclaim the virtues of the one who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
