Mark

Pinklight,

This will be my last comment for a while.

Gal 5:13 is a prime example of the husbands role as husband. The husband is called to love his wife like Christ did the Church. IN Gal we are told to ‘through love serve one another’, so yes i would through love serve my wife. This is a perfect example of how servant leadership applies both for the husband but more generally the whole church. Our love motivates our service (well at least it should).

But note this verse says nothing about husbands being ‘hypotasso’ to their wives. Serving is not the same as being subject.
