Context Readings

A Rebellious Son

17 But he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the one regarded inferior, by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the beginning of his strength. The right of the first-born is his. 18 If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son, who will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and, though they chasten him, will not hearken to them, 19 then his father and his mother shall lay hold on him, and bring him out to the elders of his city, and to the gate of his place.
