Commandment # 5, on Honoring Parents.
5. Honor thy Father and thy Mother that you may LIVE LONG in the land.
5. Parental Respect; honor parental authority so far as such authority does not eclipse divine authority. This promises extension of life/longevity. This commandment also defines parental authority to be superior over young offspring, to the authority of any state, assembly, group, or other individual who pretends to establish itself/themselves over parental authority and so eclipses divine authority and parental authority alike. This commandment honors Birthright in parents, and in family dignity.
