DAILY REFLECTION ~ 02 DECEMBER 2016

Daily Verse:

"For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.

9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." KJV



“For Elohim has commanded, saying, ‘Respect your father and your mother,’ and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’

5“But you say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me has been dedicated,”

6is certainly released from respecting his father or mother.’ So you have nullified the command of Elohim by your tradition.

7“Hypocrites! Yeshayahu rightly prophesied about you, saying,

8‘This people draw near to Me with their mouth, and respect Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me.

9‘But in vain do they worship Me, teaching as teachings the commands of men. Matthew 15:4-8 ISR



"For God said, ‘Respect your father and your mother,’ and ‘If you curse your father or your mother, you are to be put to death.’ 5 But you teach that if people have something they could use to help their father or mother, but say, ‘This belongs to God,’ 6 they do not need to honor their father.[a] In this way you disregard God's command, in order to follow your own teaching. 7 You hypocrites! How right Isaiah was when he prophesied about you!

8 ‘These people, says God, honor me with their words, but their heart is really far away from me. 9 It is no use for them to worship me, because they teach human rules as though they were my laws!’” Matthew 15:4-9 GNT
