Verse Concepts
But concerning those things about which you wrote to me: That it is good for a man not to receive a wife: but on account of fornication, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. Let the husband give to the wife that which is due, and likewise the wife also to the husband.
Likewise, ye wives, be submissive to your own husbands; in order that, if any do not believe the word, they shall be gained through the deportment of their wives, without the word; beholding your chaste deportment which is with reverence: whose beauty, let it not be the external beauty of braiding the hairs, and wearing golds, or putting on of outer garments; read more.
but let their beauty be the hidden man of the heart, in the purity of the meek and quiet spirit, which in the sight of God is perfection complete. For in this way in olden times the holy wives, the ones having hope toward God, were indeed accustomed to beautify themselves, submissive to their own husbands: as Sarah submitted to Abraham, calling him Lord: whose children you have become, doing good, and not fearing any calamity.
