'Mother' in the Bible

Give honour to your father and your mother, as you have been ordered by the Lord your God; so that your life may be long and all may be well for you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

If your brother, the son of your mother, or your son or your daughter or the wife of your heart, or the friend who is as dear to you as your life, working on you secretly says to you, Let us go and give worship to other gods, strange to you and to your fathers;

And let her take off the dress in which she was made prisoner and go on living in your house and weeping for her father and mother for a full month: and after that you may go in to her and be her husband and she will be your wife.

If a man has a son who is hard-hearted and uncontrolled, who gives no attention to the voice of his father and mother, and will not be ruled by them, though they give him punishment:

Then let his father and mother take him to the responsible men of the town, to the public place;

If by chance you see a place which a bird has made for itself in a tree or on the earth, with young ones or eggs, and the mother bird seated on the young ones or on the eggs, do not take the mother bird with the young:

See that you let the mother bird go, but the young ones you may take; so it will be well for you and your life will be long.

Then let the girl's father and mother put before the responsible men of the town, in the public place, signs that the girl was a virgin:

One whose father and mother are not married may not come into the meeting of the Lord's people, or any of his family to the tenth generation.

Cursed is he who does not give honour to his father or mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

Cursed is he who has sex relations with his sister, the daughter of his father or of his mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

Cursed is he who has sex relations with his mother-in-law. And let all the people say, So be it.

Who said of his father, Who is he? and of his mother, I have not seen her; he kept himself separate from his brothers and had no knowledge of his children: for they have given ear to your word and kept your agreement.
