Proverbs 28:24 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith, It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer. Whoso robbeth his father - The father's property is as much his own, in reference to the child, as that of the merest stronger. He who robs his parents is worse than a common robber; to the act of dishonesty and rapine he adds ingratitude, cruelty, and disobedience. Such a person is the compatriot of a destroyer; he may be considered as a murderer.
