Hebrews 12:5 And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
nor be weary when reproved by him. 6 For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.” Today begins the week with having to do a little home work. Comment to turn in your homework. 1. Define discipline. 2. Define reprove. 3. Define chastise. Now I want you to circle three to five additional words in this scripture that are critical to understanding the message. Explain why you circled each word, why do you find it important and a key to understanding the verse. Finally in your own words what does this scripture say to you?

Discipline- usually refers in the Bible to moral training which includes the positive aspect of instruction and the negative aspect of correction sometimes punitive. The result of receiving discipline with humility is wisdom and a satisfying successful life. In the OT the Word usually renders a form of the Hebrew yasar to instruct rebuke warm. Discipline in the NT usually renders a form of paideia to instruct correct.
