“Now let me try once again with my brain more alert. While the Bible never directly says that words that wives are to agapao their husbands, yet it also directly says that all of us are to agapao one another. Romans 13:8, John 13:34 are just some examples and Eph 5:2 says that we are to walk in agape. Thus we know for sure that wives are to agapao their husbands because all of us are to agapao each other.”
Exactly. That was my point. Just because the bible doesn’t tell husbands directly to submit to their wives doesn’t mean the bible doesn’t include husbands in mutual submission. Remember the question was “why didn’t Ephesians 5 just say husbands submit directly?” I also doesn’t say wives agape directly. But wives and husbands are never-the-less still commanded along with everyone else to mutually agape and submit.
