children Came With
Instructions
“Fathers, do not exasperate [or
“provoke to wrath—Marshall] your
children; instead, bring them up in
the training and instruction of the
Lord.” (Eph. 6:4).
Dads, not simply Moms, are to take
responsibility to “nourish” their children
with godly teaching, but not in an
overbearing and cruel way.  A young
child is fairly defenseless.
Mothers should speak “with wisdom
and faithful instruction” Prov. 31:26.
