we have yet also had human fathers, who have us punished, and we have them give honor; (question) should we then not much more ourselves subject to the Father of the spirits and live?
because not knowing the righteousness of Hashem and seeking to raise up their own, have they themselves not subject made to the righteousness of Hashem,
on account of these take you (PL) the weapons of Hashem, so that you (PL) shall yourselves be able to withstand in the evil day, and having all done, to remain standing.
