How preachers through history handled this text
17 public-domain excerpts on Leviticus 19, from the church fathers to the Puritans.
“3. Ye shall fear every man his mother and his father. 3. Unusquisque patrem suum et matrem suam timeat.

— Calvin, Harmony of the Law - Volume 3, on Leviticus 19:3–31 (Public Domain)
