Attacking Parents: This isn’t just about physical harm, it’s about intentional dishonor, rebellion, and breaking the sacred bond of family.

 It reads in Exodus 21:15 Easy: If someone attacks his father or his mother, you must punish him with death.

God treats violence against parents as a very serious offense.

Reflection: This verse reminds us that God sees family as sacred. Parents are not perfect, but the role they carry is weighty in God’s eyes. To attack that, physically or with intent, is to dishonor the structure God designed. Even in broken families, God calls us to walk in honor, restraint, and wisdom. This law isn’t just about punishment; it’s about protecting the roots of legacy and respect.

Father God, thank You and praise You, for the family You gave me to care for, the legacy, the lessons, and the love. Even in moments of tension or pain, help me respond with honor and grace. Teach me to value the relationships You’ve placed in my life, and to walk in wisdom. Let my words and actions reflect Your heart, especially toward those who raised me in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
