Wise son and scorner

Wise son and scorner

A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke (Pro.13:1).

When a child of God hears his or her spiritual father's instructions, he or she becomes a wise son. In the book of Proverbs, the word "father" is generally applicable to a spiritual father who takes care of his spiritual children. Here, the son is not merely a male son but also a female daughter. A child, be it female or male, has to act like a son.A scorner is described as a despiser; a contemner. A person who refuses to be rebuked for correction is a scorner.
