Arabic Bible ERV 2009

وَبِهَذا تَجاهَلْتُمْ وَصِيَّةَ اللهِ بِسَبَبِ تَقالِيدِكُمْ.

ما معنى هذا؟

This verse is from Jesus speaking to the Pharisees about how they allow people to avoid caring for their parents by saying their money should go to God instead of them. He says this makes God's commandment meaningless because of these traditions.

شرح للأطفال

Imagine if your mom or dad needed help, but you said you had to save all your allowance for a toy instead. Jesus is saying that’s wrong and doesn’t show respect to your parents like we’re supposed to.

السياق التاريخي

Matthew wrote this in the first century AD, primarily addressing Jewish followers of Jesus who were familiar with Pharisaic traditions. The cultural setting was one where honoring parents was a key commandment.

Today, if someone uses religious commitments as an excuse to avoid family responsibilities, they’re making God's commands about family care ineffective just like the Pharisees did with their traditions.
