ON
FAMILY
A family is a unit composed not only of children, but of men,
women, an occasional animal, and the common cold.
--OGDEN NASH (1902–1971)
We have careful thought for the stranger,
And smiles for the sometime guest,
But oft for our own the bitter tone,
Though we love our own the best.
--MARGARET SANGSTER (1838–1912)
There
is never much trouble in any family where the children hope someday
to resemble their parents.
-- WILLIAM LYON PHELPS (1865–1943)
The
thing that impresses me most about North America is the way parents
obey their children.
--EDWARD VIII, DUKE OF WINDSOR (1894–1972)
The first half of our lives is ruined by our parents and the second
half by our children.
-- CLARENCE S. DARROW (1857–1938)

ON
FAMILY (From Holman's Bible Dictionary)
The basic household unit which provides a person’s central
relationships, nurture, and support. The basic composition of
a family changes from the Old Testament to the New Testament.
Therefore, the search for the traditional biblical family is difficult.
The search is important, however, to understand the essential
family structures, relationships, commitments, and functions.
Jesus Christ, along with the New Testament writers, used family
images to describe the nature of faith and the church. Understanding
the biblical definition of family can guide in living out faith
in the family more effectively.
The biblical portrayal of family represents the basic structures
and conditions of the Near East of biblical times, conditions
which still prevail over much of the East today. Throughout biblical
times the structures and relationships changed. Likewise, the
commitments and functions changed.
David's
Note:
I wanted to call attention to the fact that it is difficult to
tack the idea of family down -at least in the Bible. However,
the most important family we can belong to is God's family through
faith. In today's world of high family breakup and divorce, knowing
that there is a forever family that we can belong to is good news.
