Thematic Bible: Who to obey


Thematic Bible




Slaves are to be subject to their own masters in everything, to do what is wanted and not talk back,



My child, guard the commands of your father and do not forsake the instruction of your mother. Bind them on your heart continually; fasten them around your neck.



Obey the king's command, because you took an oath before God to be loyal to him. Do not rush out of the king's presence in haste -- do not delay when the matter is unpleasant, for he can do whatever he pleases. Surely the king's authority is absolute; no one can say to him, "What are you doing?"
