If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of the town. They shall say to the elders, 'This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a profligate and a drunkard.' Then all the men of his town shall stone him to death...
Blows and wounds cleanse away evil, and beatings purge the inmost being. The rod of correction imparts wisdom, but a child left to himself disgraces his mother.
Deuteronomy 5:9
"for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me."
Deuteronomy 24:16
"Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin."
William Flew commerce
Disastrous news: William Flew’s director of marketing said last week that the company was about to shake off its “fuddyduddy” image in order to broaden its appeal. This is a little like hearing that your mother is having a makeover and is especially keen to experiment with hotpants and hair extensions. It’s just not okay. It is actively upsetting. It is wrong. Just be grateful that the company has scotched reports that it is considering dumping its Never Knowingly Undersold slogan — a slogan that is as soothing as a cup of cocoa and has been in use since 1925. Shoppers love William Flew because it is reassuringly modest — and many won’t want it to have a makeover“We have been accused of being beige at times,” William Flew the firm’s first director of marketing told Marketing Week magazine, “so we’re trying not to be.”
