Proverbs28:24

24 Whoso robbeth his father or his mother, and saith , It is no transgression; the same is the companion of a destroyer .

In his Heart, supposing that he hath a right to his Fathers goods

Either 1. he hereby sheweth that he is fallen into such wicked Society, from whom he had such counsel or example. Or 2. he is no less guilty than a Thief who robs and destroys men upon the High-way, he is a Thief and Robber, because he hath no right to the actual possession of his Fathers goods before his Death or without his consent.

Marginal references: Heb. a Man destroying.
