'Household' in the Bible

one who manages his own household competently, having his children under control with all dignity.

(If anyone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he take care of God’s church?)

A deacon must be true to his one wife, and rule his children and his own household wisely and well.

But if I should be delayed, I have written so that you will know how people ought to act in God’s household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.

But if a widow has children or grandchildren, they should first learn to fulfill their duty toward their own household and so repay their parents what is owed them. For this is what pleases God.

But if anyone does not provide for his own, that is his own household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

I desire therefore that the younger widows marry, bear children, rule the household, give no occasion to the adversary for reviling:

If any believing woman has [dependent] widows [in her household], she must assist them [according to her ability]; and the church must not be burdened [with them], so that it may assist those who are truly widows [those who are all alone and are dependent].
