Gen 2:18.   And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. Eph 5:28.   So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. 1 Pet 3:7.   Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
