What does the Bible say about the relationship between husbands and wives?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible teaches that wives should submit to their husbands, and husbands should love their wives as Christ loves the church.
In Colossians 3:18-19, Paul instructs wives to submit themselves to their husbands as it is fitting in the Lord, and husbands are commanded to love their wives and not be bitter against them. This relationship reflects the overarching theme of submission and love. The submission of wives is a picture of the church's submission to Christ, illustrating the faithful and loving relationship God desires for His people. Husbands are called to love their wives sacrificially, just as Christ laid down His life for the church to provide for her spiritual and emotional needs.
