- 17 Rule.
As Honour thy Father and thy Mother: now we must not under pretence of honouring our Parent; dishonour God; no, 'tis obedience to disobey them, wherein we cannot obey them, unless we disobey God. Neither may we under pretence of Corban or a gift, 1refuse to do ought for our Father and Mother, as God commands us, lest we make the word of God of none effect.
