Thematic Bible: Modesty of


Thematic Bible



Let the married women be subservient to their husbands, that if they happen to disbelieve the gospel, they may be gain'd by the instructive conduct of their wives, by observing the religious chastity of their manners.

and that the women be decent in their apparel, adorned with modesty and reserve, not with broider'd hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; but, as becomes women, who make a profession of religion, to be adorn'd with virtue.
