Sprueche 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.

Sprueche 23:14 In-Context

12 Gib dein Herz zur Zucht und deine Ohren zu vernünftiger Rede.
13 Laß nicht ab den Knaben zu züchtigen; denn wenn du ihn mit der Rute haust, so wird man ihn nicht töten.
14 Du haust ihn mit der Rute; aber du errettest seine Seele vom Tode
15 Mein Sohn, wenn dein Herz weise ist, so freut sich auch mein Herz;
16 und meine Nieren sind froh, wenn deine Lippen reden, was recht ist.
