So ought men to love their own wives as their own bodies. He loving his wife, loves himself. For none at any time hates his own flesh; but brings it up and cherishes it, as also the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

But ye also altogether, let each so love his own wife as himself: and the wife that she fear her husband.
