What the Bible says about Honour

Jesus on Honour

And He (Jesus) began speaking a parable to the invited guests when He noticed how they had been picking out the places of honour at the table; saying to them, "When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honour, lest someone more distinguished than you may have been invited by him, and he who invited you both shall come and say to you, 'Give place to this man,' and then in disgrace you proceed to occupy the last place. "But when you are invited, go and recline at the last place, so that when the one who has invited you comes, he may say to you, 'Friend, move up higher'; then you will have honour in the sight of all who are at the table with you. "For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted." Luke 14:7-11 (NASB77)5
