Illegitimate

To be without the love of a parent – to be orphaned or fatherless is scripturally pictured as unenviable. It’s often regarded as a life worthy of pity. (cf. Jas 1:27)

The Hebrew writer paints a similar picture of an illegitimate child.

Heb 12:8 – “But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.” (NKJV)

Illegitimate here refers to one who is neglected and rejected. The King James and others use the word “bastard.” There is, however, much more in question then just the concept of fathering a child or accepting chastening as a child, therefore, let’s consider this passage further this week.
