Did the bible say reverence no man?

Answer 1

In the King James version - No.

The word - reverence - appears 13 times, and none of them have the meaning inquired about.

1. Lev 19:30 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
2. Lev 26:2 Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
3. 2 Sam 9:6 Now when Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, was come unto David, he fell on his face, and did reverence. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he answered, Behold thy servant!
4. 1 Kin 1:31 Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the earth, and did reverence to the king, and said, Let my lord King David live for ever.
5. Est 3:2 And all the king's servants, that were in the king's gate, bowed, and reverenced Haman: for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence.
6. Est 3:5 And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath.
7. Psa 89:7 God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.
8. Mat 21:37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.

10. Luk 20:13 Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence him when they see him.
11. Eph 5:33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
12. Heb 12:9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
13. Heb 12:28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

Another thought:

Psalm 146:3-6 says: ". . .Do not put YOUR trust in nobles, Nor in the son of earthling man, to whom no salvation belongs...." and Acts 5:29 adds:"we must obey God as ruler rather than men..." so, no one should be reverenced above God.

However, a faithful worshiper of God would always want to show respect for a person's age(Leviticus 19:32), position and human law (Romans 13:1-7)....

to a point.

While showing respect for humans, a Christian would never put Man's law above God's, but always "...seek first GOD'S kingdom and HIS righteousness..."(Matthew 6:33-34) This is why the apostles 'obeyed the superior authorities'(Titus 3:1; 1Peter 2:11-17), but when asked to stop preaching about Jesus, they refused.(Acts 5:25-32)(Matthew 28:19+20)(Matthew 24:14)
