What does the Bible say about honoring your parents?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible commands us to honor our parents, as seen in Exodus 20:12.

The command to honor one's parents is rooted in Exodus 20:12, which is part of the Ten Commandments. This command reflects God's design for family structure and respect within the home. Jesus Christ exemplified this principle in His relationship with Mary, showing deep love and respect even in the face of tremendous suffering. The importance of honoring parents is not only a matter of obedience but also a reflection of our gratitude for their sacrifices, as they often bear the burdens of raising and supporting us through difficult times.
