Christian Treasury: Volume 8, Teach Them (6:7)


"Thou shalt teach them diligentlyunto thy children.”

Deuteronomy 6:7

What should you teach them?

To love the Lord God with all their heart (Deut. 6:5).

Who should be taught?

Your children (v. 7), and the responsibility doesn't stop there. We are to teach our grandchildren also (Deut. 4:9). Timothy knew the blessing of learning of "the unfeigned faith" from both his mother and grandmother (2 Tim. 1:5).

When should it be taught?

When sitting at home, when walking by the way, when lying down and rising up—continually (Deut. 6:7).
