Ephesians 5:23-32

CLV(i) 23 for the husband is head of the wife even as Christ is Head of the ecclesia, and He is the Saviour of the body." 24 Nevertheless, as the ecclesia is subject to Christ, thus are the wives also to their husbands in everything." 25 Husbands, be loving your wives according as Christ also loves the ecclesia, and gives Himself up for its sake, 26 that He should be hallowing it, cleansing it in the bath of the water (with His declaration), 27 that He should be presenting to Himself a glorious ecclesia, not having spot or wrinkle or any such things, but that it may be holy and flawless." 28 Thus, the husbands also ought to be loving their own wives as their own bodies. He who is loving his own wife is loving himself." 29 For no one at any time hates his own flesh, but is nurturing and cherishing it, according as Christ also the ecclesia, 30 for we are members of His body. 31 For this "a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh." 32 This secret is great: yet I am saying this as to Christ and as to the ecclesia.
