Prov. 22:15 – Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.

(2024) – Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [cf. v. 6 – Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. 13:24 – He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes. 19:18 – Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying. 23:13-14 – Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die. Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell. Heb. 12:5-11 – And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.]
