Literary Context (How does the Word Work):
He holds His position of sonship, and it has confirmed to Him as the reward of filial service. (Edwards 9)
My Attempt:
The filial ties in a family show the beauty of unconditional love.
Hunt for Words:
Found word in the commentary to the Epistle to the Hebrews by Thomas Charles Edwards. The Community Bible Reading is currently reading Hebrews, starting today with Chapter One. The use of old books, this book came out first in 1887-1888 is a great way to sharpen up one's vocabulary.
Audio/Visual: Filial
Edwards, Thomas Charles D.D. The Epistle to the Hebrews New York: A.C. Armstrong and Son, 1887-1888.
