Malachi 1:6 The son honoureth the father, and the servant his master: if then I be a father, where is my honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear: saith the Lord of hosts?

Father. God sometimes took this title, Exodus 4:32. But he was oftener represented as a master; and the old law was a law of fear. (Calmet) --- Servant et metuunt jus. (Juvenal xiv.)
