wmth@Ephesians:5:21 @ and submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
wmth@Ephesians:5:22 @ Married women, submit to your own husbands as if to the Lord;
wmth@Ephesians:5:23 @ because a husband is the Head of his wife as Christ also is the Head of the Church, being indeed the Saviour of this His Body.
wmth@Ephesians:5:24 @ And just as the Church submits to Christ, so also married women should be entirely submissive to their husbands.
wmth@Ephesians:5:25 @ Married men, love your wives, as Christ also loved the Church and gave Himself up to death for her;
wmth@Ephesians:5:26 @ in order to make her holy, cleansing her with the baptismal water by the word,
wmth@Ephesians:5:27 @ that He might present the Church to Himself a glorious bride, without spot or wrinkle or any other defect, but to be holy and unblemished.
wmth@Ephesians:5:28 @ So too married men ought to love their wives as much as they love themselves. He who loves his wife loves himself.
wmth@Ephesians:5:29 @ For never yet has a man hated his own body. On the contrary he feeds and cherishes it, just as Christ feeds and cherishes the Church;
wmth@Ephesians:5:30 @ because we are, as it were, parts of His Body.

wmth@Ephesians:5:32 @ That is a great truth hitherto kept secret: I mean the truth concerning Christ and the Church.
wmth@Ephesians:5:33 @ Yet I insist that among you also, each man is to love his own wife as much as he loves himself, and let a married woman see to it that she treats her husband with respect.
