Life and ConductDiscipline your son The Hebrew word for "discipline" is "yasar," which implies correction, instruction, and chastening. In the ancient Near Eastern context, discipline was seen as an essential part of upbringing, not merely punitive but formative. It reflects a loving guidance that aims to shape character and instill wisdom. The phrase emphasizes the responsibility of parents to actively engage in their children's moral and spiritual development.
