“For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:”
After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church — the principle: oudeis gar pot tēn heautou sarka ebasen ('nobody ever hated their own flesh'), alla ektrephō ('but nourishes') kai thalpō ('and cherishes') autēn ('it'), kathos kai ho Christos tēn ekklēsiān ('as Christ also the church'), Christ's care for the body of believers.
