היא שצונו לכבד אב ואם. והוא אמרו יתעלה כבד את אביך ואת אמך. וכבר התבארו משפטי מצוה זו בתלמוד ועיקרו בקדושין. ולשון ספרא איזהו כבוד מאכיל ומשקה מכניס ומוציא. (וישמע יתרו, הלכות ממרים פ"ו):

Sefaria Edition 2021, Translated by Rabbi Francis Nataf

That is that He commanded us to honor [our] father and mother. And that is His, may He be exalted, saying, "You shall honor your father and mother" (Exodus 20:12). And the regulations of this commandment have already been explained in the Talmud, primarily in Kiddushin. And the language of the Sifra (Sifra, Kedoshim, Section 1:10) is, "Which is honor? Giving to eat, giving to drink [...], bringing in and taking out." (See Parashat Yitro; Mishneh Torah, Rebels 6.)
