Proverbs: Wives
ProverbsSteve Gregg
In "Proverbs: Wives," Steve Gregg discusses the role of wives and husbands according to the book of Proverbs. While wives are often seen as the weaker party in the relationship, they are capable of wielding significant power, particularly in managing the household. According to Proverbs, a virtuous woman who fears the Lord is praised above all; charm and beauty are deemed deceitful and vain, and a woman without discretion is seen as empty. Gregg emphasizes the importance of mutual respect and submission in a marriage, noting that a wife who refuses to submit can be a serious detriment to the relationship.
