Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine.
They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.
Read it carefully now. Too bring under control..... Just like a good doggy! To make amenable to the discipline of a superior... Just like a good doggy. Superior....hmmmm let's think about it. If the wife is the one submitting to discipline (which is ridiculous to say a wife needs to be disciplined by her husband) then she is INFERIOR to his SUPERIORITY. I don't make up the definitions.
No offense DaniMae - but while you "don't make up the definitions", you do misinterpret them.
Since you aren't grasping the meaning of this teaching in the Bible why not just let it go?
As is so typical, too many of us just don't "get it" and waste so much time arguing over semantics when all we are supposed to do is love God and love one another
Alan, I think we agree that the "head" of the marriage is not just the "boss", but the compass that can either lead the team to still waters, or raging seas - he's the leader by God's design, but he's not necessarily the wisest of the two. It must be a joint effort in pursuit of God's plan for their lives.
This boasting of who's the boss is irrelevant and childish, imo - it's a place of ministry and responsibility, and when taken seriously there's humility.

a lot of girls get mixed up as to the meaning of the term "Head"...(as used in this context)
Think not of a human body...
I dont want you thinking that the "Head" spoken of as being the husband is like the head of a body that sits on top of the trunk of the body.
That is the wrong image to have in your mind.
The correct image is to think of the "headwaters" of a river....
That is the more correct understanding of the term as used in this context.
"head- waters"
He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts
Rest assured this troubadour is acting on his part
The union of your spirits here has caused him to remain
For whenever two or more of you are gathered in his name
There is love, there is love
Well a man shall leave his mother, and a woman leave her home
They shall travel on to where the two shall be as one
As it was in the beginning and is now until the end A woman draws her life from man and gives it back again
And there’s love, there is love
And then what’s to be the reason for becoming man and wife
Is it love that brings you here or love that gives you life
For if loving is the answer then who’s the giving for
Do you believe in something that you’ve never seen before
Oh there’s love, there is love
And then what’s to be the reason for becoming man and wife
Is it love that brings you here or love that gives you life
For if loving is the answer then who’s the giving for
Do you believe in something that you’ve never seen before
Oh there’s love, there is love
For man was not made from woman, but woman from man.
Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
Alan, alan, you are clearly defending the indefensible. Number one you have reverted to screaming (bold text), the first side that the belief that loud makes right when nothing else does. Your anger is palatable.
You have three short screaming posts in a row, you are just lashing out in all directions with your screams, again a sign your point is indefensible, and loud is the basis of being right.
You refuse to listen to any reason, you refuse to discuss the matter with any logic, just scream disconnected passages.
In all the wonders you see in your god, do your truly believe in your heart that he dictated that you treat your partner in life as a second class person? Rhetorical question I know, but really dude how do you also resolve the conflict between that and the golden rule?
