That is wayyyy over thinking the issue. I am taking my opinion from the current Holy Bible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This link says it was from the 13th century, If I read it correctly. http://www.dictionarycentral.com/definition/respect.html Well, Scripture says "respect" so that is what it means.

"Are they adhering to His Laws or their laws" etc,,,etc..... Hope that helps a bit,it does not mean to esteem a person over another person with a higher regard or value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's another example of why Got Questions cannot be fully trusted, and neither can the modern Bible versions. The KJV has the correct rendering of this verse, which has "honour" -- not "respect" -- as the correct translation: Scrivener's Textus Receptus 1894πάντας τιμήσατε. τὴν ἀδελφότητα ἀγαπᾶτε. τὸν Θεὸν φοβεῖσθε. τὸν βασιλέα τιμᾶτε.King James BibleHonour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.Young's Literal Translationto all give ye honour; the brotherhood love ye; God fear ye; the king honour ye. Strong's Concordance timaó: to fix the value, to price Original Word: τιμάωPart of Speech: VerbTransliteration: timaóPhonetic Spelling: (tim-ah'-o)Short Definition: I value at a price, honorDefinition: (a) I value at a price, estimate, (b) I honor, reverence. HELPS Word-studies Cognate: 5091 timáō – properly, assign value(give honor), as it reflects the personal esteem (value, preciousness) attached to it by thebeholder. See 5092 (timē).
