“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;”
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her — the command reverses authority with sacrificial love: hoi andres, agapaō ('husbands, love') tas gynaikes ('your wives'), kathos Christos agapaō ('as Christ loved') tēn ekklēsiān ('the church') kai paradidōmi ('and gave himself up') hyper autēs ('for her'), Christ's self-sacrifice is the measure.
