Ephesians 5:22-23, 25-26, 32

For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church.

For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word.

This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one.
