then he is exempt and no longer under obligation to honor and help his father or his mother. So for the sake of your tradition (the rules handed down by your forefathers), you have set aside the Word of God [depriving it of force and authority and making it of no effect].

he will positively not pay due reverence and respect to his father and his mother. In short, you deprived the Word of God of its force and authority because of your precepts which were handed down to you from your fathers.
