Large Catechism: Special Distinction above All Others (I 103-111)
from Wrestling with Theology · host Rev. Doug Minton
"To the position of fatherhood and motherhood God has given special distinction above all positions that are beneath it: He does not simply command us to love our parents, but to honor them. Regarding our brothers, sisters, and neighbors in general, He commands nothing more than that we love them. In this way He separates and distinguishes father and mother from all other persons upon earth and places them at His side" (105).
