What does the Bible say about the roles of husbands and wives?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible instructs wives to submit to their husbands and husbands to love their wives, reflecting Christ's love for the Church.

In Colossians 3:17-19, the Apostle Paul outlines the roles of husbands and wives by stating that wives should submit to their husbands as it is fitting in the Lord, while husbands are to love their wives and not be bitter toward them. This mutual respect and love reflect the relationship between Christ and His Church. The husband, as the head, is called to lead with love and sacrificial care, embodying the love Christ has for His own. The roles established here are not just commands but are designed to reveal the glory of God through the union of marriage.
