Reference: Obedience
Hastings
Occasionally this word occurs in Scripture to express the duty of one person to another, as in De 21:18-19; 2Sa 22:45; 2Th 3:14; Php 2:12; Eph 6:1,5; 1Pe 3:6. Much more frequently it expresses the duty of man to God (1Sa 15:22; Jer 11:7; Joh 14:15,23). The spirit of obedience is the primal and indispensable requirement for acceptance by the Father. The Son of God Himself was made perfect through obedience (Heb 5:8), and only thus. It was the motto of His earthly life, 'I am come to do thy will, O God' (Heb 10:7). The one lesson of the life of Jesus is the one lesson of the word of God from first to last
