his father and mother must take hold of him and bring him to the elders of his city, to the gate of his hometown.
Deuteronomy 21:19 In-Context
17
He must acknowledge the son of his unloved wife as the firstborn by giving him a double share of all he has. That son is the first sign of his father’s strength. The right of the firstborn belongs to him.
18
If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him,
19
his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town.
20
They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.”
21
Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid.
