"Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen."
Commentary
Gill's Exposition
Cursed be he that setteth light by his father, or his mother,.... That secretly despises them in his heart, and by looks and gestures mocks at them in a private
manner, unseen by others, Pro 30:17 ; for if he publicly cursed them, that was cognizable by the civil magistrate, and he was to be put to death, Lev 20:9 . This follows next, as in the order of the ten commands, to that which respects the fear and worship of God; honouring parents being next to the glorifying of God, the Father of all: and all the people shall say Amen; applaud the righteous sentence, saying, "so let it be".
