paul_n do_v not_o only_o give_v we_o the_o command_n of_o god_n on_o this_o subject_a but_o on_o his_o own_o part_n he_o give_v we_o the_o condition_n of_o marriage_n between_o man_n and_o wife_n in_o as_o much_o as_o on_o the_o one_o side_n he_o recommend_v to_o christian_a husband_n to_o love_v their_o wife_n and_o on_o the_o other_o he_o recommend_v to_o the_o wife_n to_o be_v submissive_a to_o their_o husband_n in_o love_v they_o husband_n love_v your_o wife_n say_v he_o even_o as_o christ_n love_v his_o church_n and_o give_v himself_o to_o die_v for_o it_o 25._o so_o let_v husband_n love_v their_o wife_n even_o as_o their_o own_o body_n 28._o indeed_o say_v a_o learned_a doctor_n 22._o in_o explain_v this_o passage_n as_o jesus_n christ_n be_v over_o and_o rule_v his_o church_n and_o which_o he_o govern_v and_o protect_v for_o its_o own_o good_a even_o so_o a_o husband_n ought_v to_o command_v and_o govern_v his_o wife_n both_o for_o she_o own_o and_o whole_a family_n good_a but_o we_o must_v here_o observe_v that_o since_o st._n paul_n have_v order_v husband_n to_o love_v their_o wife_n he_o thereby_o teach_v they_o not_o to_o command_v or_o govern_v they_o imperious_o but_o

man_n must_v know_v that_o marriage_n be_v the_o high_a degree_n of_o all_o amity_n whatever_n and_o that_o amity_n be_v vast_o different_a from_o tyranny_n since_o tyrant_n be_v not_o obey_v but_o by_o force_n mar_v this_o for_o the_o part_n of_o the_o husband_n as_o to_o what_o respect_v the_o part_n of_o the_o wife_n he_o cease_v not_o to_o preach_v submission_n to_o they_o let_v wife_n say_v he_o submit_v to_o husband_n their_o husband_n as_o to_o the_o lord_n because_o the_o man_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o woman_n even_o as_o christ_n be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n which_o be_v his_o body_n and_o whereof_o also_o he_o be_v the_o saviour_n as_o therefore_o the_o church_n be_v obedient_a to_o christ_n so_o let_v woman_n also_o be_v obedient_a to_o their_o husband_n in_o all_o thing_n 22._o let_v woman_n than_o consider_v the_o person_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n who_o be_v the_o head_n and_o espouse_v of_o the_o church_n in_o the_o person_n of_o their_o husband_n neither_o do_v this_o submission_n at_o all_o exclude_v the_o love_n of_o the_o wife_n towards_o the_o husband_n but_o on_o the_o contrary_a aught_o to_o be_v accompany_v with_o love_n as_o though_o st._n paul_n shall_v say_v i_o charge_v the_o wife_n that_o she_o not_o only_o love_v her_o husband_n but_o also_o that_o she_o fear_v he_o and_o bear_v to_o he_o a_o respect_n as_o to_o her_o

we_o can_v but_o admire_v the_o wife_n justice_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n the_o importance_n of_o the_o word_n of_o this_o great_a apostle_n he_o say_v to_o husband_n love_v your_o wife_n know_v well_o that_o if_o they_o love_v they_o they_o will_v not_o hearken_v to_o any_o infidelity_n that_o can_v loosen_v their_o conjugal_a unity_n for_o love_n be_v the_o very_a tie_n and_o cement_v of_o this_o union_n he_o know_v well_o that_o to_o love_v they_o be_v to_o love_v their_o own_o self_n 4._o since_o they_o be_v one_o flesh_n with_o they_o and_o to_o oblige_v they_o to_o a_o reciprocal_a love_n and_o last_o he_o say_v to_o they_o love_v your_o wife_n thereby_o give_v they_o to_o understand_v that_o the_o superiority_n of_o the_o husband_n ought_v to_o be_v altogether_o in_o love_n then_o he_o say_v to_o the_o woman_n love_v your_o husband_n but_o he_o add_v be_v you_o subject_a to_o your_o husband_n let_v they_o that_o be_v grow_v up_o in_o year_n say_v he_o 4._o instruct_v

he_o also_o for_o from_o these_o two_o sentence_n conjoin_v arise_v the_o duty_n of_o a_o wife_n towards_o her_o husband_n a_o woman_n must_v be_v not_o only_o good_a and_o compliant_a but_o also_o submit_v and_o obedient_a to_o her_o husband_n because_o he_o be_v she_o head_n the_o apostle_n command_v obedience_n in_o the_o woman_n because_o he_o know_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o humane_a

of_o this_o age_n true_a or_o reasonable_a love_n be_v like_a that_o of_o a_o father_n towards_o his_o child_n who_o desire_v to_o receive_v nothing_o from_o they_o or_o to_o possess_v they_o
