What does the Bible say about husbands honoring their wives?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible emphasizes that husbands should dwell with their wives according to knowledge, honoring them as weaker vessels and acknowledging them as joint heirs of grace (1 Peter 3:7).

The Bible instructs husbands in 1 Peter 3:7 to dwell with their wives according to knowledge, meaning they should seek to understand and provide for her needs. This acknowledgment comes with the responsibility to honor their wives as the weaker vessel, recognizing their value as co-heirs of God’s grace. The metaphor of 'weaker vessel' speaks to the need for care and tenderness, while the concept of being heirs together signifies equality in God's eyes.
