Thematic Bible: Duties of, to their husbands


Thematic Bible




but even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also are the wives to their own husbands in everything.





to the wife let the husband the due benevolence render, and in like manner also the wife to the husband; the wife over her own body hath not authority, but the husband; and, in like manner also, the husband over his own body hath not authority, but the wife. Defraud not one another, except by consent for a time, that ye may be free for fasting and prayer, and again may come together, that the Adversary may not tempt you because of your incontinence;


Your women in the assemblies let them be silent, for it hath not been permitted to them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith;

sober, pure, keepers of their own houses, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of.




for the married woman to the living husband hath been bound by law, and if the husband may die, she hath been free from the law of the husband; so, then, the husband being alive, an adulteress she shall be called if she may become another man's; and if the husband may die, she is free from the law, so as not to be an adulteress, having become another man's.
