Deuteronomy 21:19

Context
21:19 his father and mother must seize him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his city.

Deuteronomy 27:16

Context
27:16 ‘Cursed 1  is the one who disrespects 2  his father and mother.’ Then all the people will say, ‘Amen!’

1 tn The Levites speak again at this point; throughout this pericope the Levites pronounce the curse and the people respond with “Amen.”

2 tn The Hebrew term קָלָה (qalah) means to treat with disdain or lack of due respect (cf. NAB, NIV, NRSV “dishonors”; NLT “despises”). It is the opposite of כָּבֵד (kaved, “to be heavy,” that is, to treat with reverence and proper deference). To treat a parent lightly is to dishonor him or her and thus violate the fifth commandment (Deut 5:16; cf. Exod 21:17).
