Provérbios 23:14 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 23:14

Thou shall beat him with the rod
Or, correct him with the stripes of the children of men, in a moderate and suitable manner, proportionable to the fault committed; and as he is able to bear it, both as to body and mind; and shalt deliver his soul from hell;
be a means of preventing those sins which would bring to hell and destruction; and of bringing to repentance for those committed; and so of saving his soul, which should be the chief thing parents should have in view in chastising their children; the salvation of whose souls should be dear unto them, as it is to all truly gracious and thoughtful ones.

Provérbios 23:14 In-Context

12 Aplica o teu coração � instrução, e os teus ouvidos �s palavras do conhecimento.
13 Não retires da criança a disciplina; porque, fustigando-a tu com a vara, nem por isso morrerá.
14 Tu a fustigarás com a vara e livrarás a sua alma do Seol
15 Filho meu, se o teu coração for sábio, alegrar-se-á o meu coração, sim, ó, meu próprio;
16 e exultará o meu coração, quando os teus lábios falarem coisas retas.
