1 Chyldren, obey your fathers and mothers in the Lorde: for this is ryght. 2 Honour thy father and mother (whiche is the first commaundement in promise) 3 That thou mayest prosper, and lyue long on earth. 4 Fathers prouoke not your children to wrath: but bring them vp in instruction and information of the Lorde. 5 Seruauntes obey them that are your bodyly maisters, with feare and tremblyng, in singlenesse of your heart, as vnto Christe. 6 Not with seruice vnto the eye, as men pleasers: but as the seruautes of Christ. 7 Doyng the wyll of God fro the heart, with good wyll seruyng the Lorde, and not men: 8 Knowyng, that whatsoeuer good thyng any man doeth, that shall he receaue agayne of the Lorde, whether [he be] bonde or free. 9 And ye maisters do the same thynges vnto them, puttyng away threatnyng: knowyng that your maister also is in heauen, neither is respecte of person with hym.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Honour thy father and mother,.... This explains who parents are, and points at some branches of obedience due unto them; for they are not only to be loved, and to be feared, and reverenced, their corrections to be submitted to, offences against them to be acknowledged, their tempers to be bore with, and their infirmities covered; but they are to be honoured in thought, word, and gesture; they are to be highly thought of and esteemed; they are to be spoken to, and of, very honourably, and with great veneration and to be behaved to in a very respectful manner; and they are to be relieved, assisted, and maintained in comfortable way when aged, and in necessitous circumstances; and which may be chiefly designed. So the Jews explain כבוד, "the honour" due to parents, by, c. מאכיל, "giving them food, drink", and "clothing", unloosing their shoes, and leading them out and in x. Compare with this 1 Timothy 5:4

1 Timothy 5:4- :;

which is the first commandment with promise: it is the fifth commandment in the decalogue, but the first that has a promise annexed to it: it is reckoned by the Jews y the weightiest of the weightiest commands of the law; and the reward bestowed on it, is length of days, as follows.

x T. Hieros. Kiddushin, fol. 61. 2. T. Bab. Kiddushin, fol. 31. 1, 2. Maimon. & Bartenora in Misn. Kiddushin, c. 1. sect. 7. y Debarim Rabba, sect. 6. fol. 241. 3.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Honour thy father and mother - see Exodus 20:12; compare notes on Matthew 15:4.

Which is the first commandment with promise - With a promise annexed to it. The promise was, that their days should be long in the land which the Lord their God would give them. It is not to be supposed that the observance of the four first commandments would not be attended with a blessing, but no particular blessing is promised. It is true, indeed, that there is a “general declaration” annexed to the second commandment, that God would show mercy to thousands of generations of them that loved him and that kept his commandments. But that is rather a declaration in regard to all the commands of God than a promise annexed to that specific commandment. It is an assurance that obedience to the law of God would be followed with blessings to a thousand generations, and is given in view of the first and second commandments together, because they related particularly to the honor that was due to God. But the promise in the fifth commandment is a “special promise.” It does not relate to obedience to God in general, but it is a particular assurance that they who honor their parents shall have a particular blessing as the result of that obedience.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ephesians 6:2. Honour thy fatherExodus 20:12; Exodus 20:12, &c., where this subject, together with the promises and threatenings connected with it, is particularly considered, and the reasons of the duty laid down at large.
