Are you wondering how a man should treat his wife according to the Bible? Read or listen to this chapter from Your Marriage God’s Way to find out: https://www.scottlapierre.org/how-a-man-should-treat-his-wife-according-to-the-bible/
"There’s a story about a pastor who, when he preached on 1 Peter 3:1-7, told his congregation that he didn’t know why there were six verses for wives but only one verse for husbands. After the service was over an elderly, wise woman came up to the pastor and said, “It’s because women can remember six verses, but men can only remember one.”
Whether that’s true or not, Peter packs so much into the one verse for husbands that it could be multiple verses: “Husbands, likewise, dwell with [your wives] with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered” (1 Peter 3:7).
In verses 1 through 6, Peter instructed wives to submit to their husbands, and then in verse 7, he taught husbands how to treat their wives to ensure they didn’t abuse the authority entrusted to them by God. The first six verses describe a godly wife, and then verse 7 correspondingly describes how a godly husband treats his wife."
