We have noted how the entire book of Proverbs by design is an exposition of the 5^th commandment (Ex20:12) “Honor your father & your mother...”. Properly applied within the covenant home, Solomon demonstrates that to obey this commandment is to obey them all. In this way, the framework of Proverbs presents an exhortation to all parties in society. If we serve as a source of wisdom for anyone, especially our children, may our instruction be consistent with all the law of God. As we are students of wisdom, under anyone, especially our Christian parents, may we honor the whole council of God in honoring them. In chapter 5, the author emphasizes the relationship between the 5^th & 7^th commandments. Those who heed the council of their godly parents, will not commit adultery, instead their upbringing will prepare them to discern and resist unfaithfulness to their covenants with God and their family.
