What does the Bible say about the role of wives in marriage?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible instructs wives to submit to their husbands as unto the Lord, emphasizing a relationship of respect and order.

In Ephesians 5:22-24, the Apostle Paul clearly states, 'Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church.' This passage underlines the importance of this divine order, which reflects the relationship between Christ and the Church. A wife's submission is not about inferiority but about acknowledging the husband as the leader in the marriage, which mirrors the relationship between Christ and His bride, the Church.
