Answer:
Good government brings harmony and progress. Without government there would be no order, no safety, and no protection of rights.
Disobeying your parents brings discipline and limitations. Honoring and respecting your parents usually results in greater freedom and trust.
Step-by-step explanation:
- The first pair of sentences is comparing the Ten Commandments to the Constitution by stating that they are both written laws used to govern a nation.
- The second pair of sentences is comparing God delegating authority to parents to parents delegating authority to community. In both sentences authority is being delegated.
- In the third pair of sentences a good government is being contrasted to no government. One brings progress and the other brings lack of order and safety.
- The fourth pair of sentences is comparing Abraham and your father. Both are the leaders of a family.
- The fifth and final pair of sentences is contrasting disobeying your parents to honoring them. Disobedience will bring discipline and limitations, while honor and respect will bring freedom and trust.
