Marcos 7:10 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 7:10

For Moses said
That is, God by Moses; for the following precept was spoken by God, and written by him on one of the tables of stone, and delivered into the hands of Moses, to be given to the children of Israel:

honour thy father and thy mother,
( Exodus 20:12 ) , the sanction of which law is,

and whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death,
( Exodus 21:17 ) . As the former of these commands is to be understood, not only of honouring parents in thought, word, and deed, but also of providing for them, when in want and distress, through poverty and old age; so the latter is to be interpreted, not merely of wishing or imprecating the most dreadful things upon parents, which some may not be guilty of, and yet transgress this command; but likewise of every slight put upon them, and neglect of them, when in necessitous circumstances: and both these laws were broken by the Jews, through their tradition hereafter mentioned; (See Gill on Matthew 15:4).

Marcos 7:10 In-Context

8 »Pues ustedes pasan por alto la ley de Dios y la reemplazan con su propia tradición.

9 Entonces dijo:

10 Por ejemplo, Moisés les dio la siguiente ley de Dios: “Honra a tu padre y a tu madre” y “Cualquiera que hable irrespetuosamente de su padre o de su madre
tendrá que morir”
.

11 Sin embargo, ustedes dicen que está bien que uno le diga a sus padres: “Lo siento, no puedo ayudarlos porque he jurado darle a Dios lo que les hubiera dado a ustedes”
.

12 De esta manera, ustedes permiten que la gente desatienda a sus padres necesitados.
