BibleGateway+ is less than $5/mo. - To me, she is a helpmate to her husband. (See Psalm 34:14, II Corinthians 13:11, and Colossians 3:15.) 25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave . Search the word glory on this sermon from a well-known preacher. Woman is the glory of man. No, all members of the body of . (Romans 8:28). Also, why do you suppose that Paul says, in his second letter to those in Corinth, that all believers are to be unveiled so that we can behold as in a mirror the glory of the Lord? Whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well [be a well-doer . Thank you for posting my comments. As John Calvin states, There is no doubt that the woman is a distinguished ornament of the man . Finally, Proverbs 31:12 says "She comforts, encourages, and does him only good as long as there is life within her.". Maybe not as much as other passages. She asks the angel to wait Being here among Brethren, soothes me. Every woman wants to be the wife of her husbands dreams. First, I looked at Matthew Henrys commentary which says that the woman is the glory of man: she is his representative. Proverbs 14:1 says, Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands. A foolish wife caneither unknowingly or deliberatelycrush her husbands spirit by making foolish choices. Then Eve was created for Adam so that he would not be alone (Genesis 2:18, 20). 23 And the city has no need of the sun or of the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God has illumined it, and its lamp is the Lamb (Rev. ), Grow in Godly character by properly responding to disappointments. Sarah trusted God to meet her needs through her authority (Abraham), and God worked supernaturally on Sarahs behalf to protect her from harm. So to glory means to honor. I agree that Scripture never says that men are the mediators between women and God, yet that is what some preachers and theologians teach. For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man. Not that she had dominion over the inferior creatures, as she is a partaker of human nature, and so far is Gods representative too, but it is at second hand. Whatever passes through the paths of the seas. Man is the glory of God. I know I kind of cheated in this hard part since I didnt really mention headcoverings but I suspect that headcoverings (whatever that looks like today) might be the answer of what particular way women are to honor men (wives/husbands) and why that is especially mentioned here. She is the image of God, inasmuch as she is the image of man.. not her husband first? Is Marriage Really an Illustration of Christ and the Church? They are as follows: Verse 3 Paul model (where the figurative meaning of head means source/origin). (See Ephesians 5:22-24.) This was sorta helpful. Adams own image and glory existed in God, Himself. When man was created in the image of God, he was unlike any of the other animals. The husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. "Him that has a good wife no evil in lifethat may not be borne can befall;Him that has a bad wife no good thing in lifethat chance to, that good you may call." In other words, everyone in the church is a bride called to serve as the wife of Christ. for her price is far above rubies. Accept difficult situations from God without giving Him a deadline to remove them. but that female Christians have male Christians as their head? God grants spouses full access to each others bodies for sexual gratification. Yield your rights and expectations to God. A husband needs to know that his wife is committed to him no matter what and that she will look first to him for counsel and direction. And woman reflects mans glory. Ah, what a great question. Point out your husbands strengths and encourage him to further develop them, for the glory of God.
