Dia dos pais
O Dia dos Pais celebra o amor e o sacrifício paterno. A Bíblia honra os pais como provedores, protetores e guias espirituais que moldam as próximas gerações.
O pai que educa
Instrui a criança no caminho em que deve andar. O pai justo educa com amor, firmeza e o exemplo de uma vida íntegra.

Honor your father and your mother, so that your days are prolonged on the ground which your God YHWH is giving to you.
Behold, sons [are] an inheritance of YHWH, || The fruit of the womb [is] a reward. As arrows in the hand of a mighty one, || So [are] the sons of the young men. O the blessedness of the man || Who has filled his quiver with them, || They are not ashamed, || For they speak with enemies in the gate!

And the father said to his servants, Bring forth the foremost robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet; and having brought the fatted calf, kill [it], and having eaten, we may be merry,
