Show Notes

The picture of marriage is an important image that God has given us, calling us to a higher understanding of who he is and how he relates to us.

 

But why emphasize this picture?

 

Paul gives us some insight into this question in Ephesians 5. This chapter is not a particularly popular passage in our culture today mainly due to the roles it describes for a husband and wife in marriage, especially with the idea of the wife submitting to her husband.

 

We explore what this passage really means. Additional scriptures referenced include Genesis 2:24.
