How do we know that husbands must love their wives sacrificially?

Answered in 1 source

The command for husbands to love sacrificially is rooted in the example of Christ's love for the Church.

Ephesians 5:25 emphasizes that husbands should love their wives as Christ loved the Church, which is the ultimate standard of love. Christ's love was sacrificial; He laid down His life for His people, exemplifying the highest form of love. This imminent act of selflessness is a model for husbands, who are called to prioritize their wives' needs and spiritual growth over their own desires. Sacrificial love involves not only a deep emotional connection but also the commitment to serve and nurture one’s wife as a reflection of Christ's intimate relationship with the Church.
