Husband and wife

in bible •  7 years ago 

The bible speaks much to the subject of marriage. In 1st Cornithians 7 we see the apostle Paul speaking on this subject to the church. There are some things that would standout to the culture of that day as revolutionary. One of these is the way in which Paul states the responsibilites of both the husband towards his wife and the wife torwards her husband as equal and the same. Many cultures at that time viewed the wife as property of the husband; this teaching was revolutional. Hubsands, the bible says, have responsibility to serve the wife in martial duties as much as the wife has a responsibility to her husband.
