First, That the effects of your obedience, or disobedience will stick upon you and yours to many generations. If you be obedient Children in the Lord, both you and yours, may reap the fruits of that your obedience in multitudes of sweet mercies for many generations. So runs the Promise, Eph. 6.23. Honour thy Father ⟨p. 426⟩and Mother, which is the first commandment with promise, that it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. You know what an eye of favour God cast upon the Rechabites for this, Jer. 35.8. from the 14. to the 20. verse: and as his blessings are by promise entailed on the obedient, so his curse upon the disobedient, Prov. 20.20. Whoso curseth his Father or his Mother; his Lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness, (i. e.) the Lamp of his life quenched by death, yea say others, and his soul also by the blackness of darkness in Hell.
