@YoungOneJosh1 @cheryl_hanks @rightresponsem You interpret something purely based on sentence structure? 🤔 If your see your wife as equivalent to sin, then I guess you must master her… Maybe that’s why men are so off base on this. Song 7:10 is the...

Analysis of 'teshukah' (desire): lexicons show it could mean sexual desire or desire to dominate; it appears only 3 times in the OT.

Hebrew word study on 'desire' in Gen 3:16
