\"WhatAfter publishing the article What does the Bible say about marriage when the woman is taller?<\/a> I got this question. I advise all readers of this portal to seek and study the inductive Bible study course \u201cMarriage without regrets\u201d, that is a deeply one\u00a0and it covers the main issues related to marriage, including a separate lesson dedicated to the woman\u2019s role as a wife, a mother, a\u00a0housewife and other roles she has. In this article I will make a brief presentation of the role of women as a wife.<\/p>\n

To be a suitable helper\u00a0for the\u00a0husband <\/strong><\/h2>\n

After God\u00a0mentions the events in the six days of creation in the first chapter of the Book of Genesis, He describes\u00a0more detailed how He created the\u00a0man and a woman in chapter 2. God created man from the dust of the earth,\u00a0placed him in the garden of Eden and gave him the responsibility to work and guard the garden.<\/p>\n

Then the LORD God said, \u201cIt is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him.\u00a0(Genesis 2:18)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Before\u00a0the woman\u00a0was created, before\u00a0she was called woman by\u00a0the man, God had set her role as a wife, to be \u201ca suitable helper for\u00a0her husband.\u201d What does it mean a suitable helper? It is\u00a0someone who participates actively in everything\u00a0the man does,\u00a0who is interested and passionate equally\u00a0for the same purposes. Therefore, it is important for those who are going to get married to\u00a0ask themselves whether they have the\u00a0 same goals in life, in order not to\u00a0be\u00a0independent to the point that they become strangers. A woman who wants to fulfill the role of wife, will be interested in the good activity of her\u00a0husband, in the purposes and in his efforts and\u00a0she will support, advise and assist him\u00a0in achieving these goals.<\/p>\n

To respond actively to the good initiatives of\u00a0her husband <\/strong><\/h2>\n

After God created woman and brought her to the man, after the man, having the greatest joy, welcomed the woman and gave her his own name, indicating that they\u00a0have same identity, God said:<\/p>\n

For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh. (Genesis 2:24)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The main meaning of this verse is that God let the husband the responsibility to initiate the sexual relation and the wife\u00a0to respond and to maintain the initiative of the man to keep this relationship beautiful and romantic forever. This verse\u00a0highlights an important principle, namely, that the woman\u00a0may know to respond positively to the good initiatives of\u00a0her husband, so encouraging him to good things and appreciating him for what he achieved or wants to accomplish.<\/p>\n

To be open with the husband <\/strong><\/h2>\n

The following verse from the book of\u00a0Genesis says:<\/p>\n

And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed. (Genesis 2:25)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This passage\u00a0involves more than just being naked, or\u00a0without clothes. This involves a soul\u00a0opening towards one another, or in other words, such an opening, when you can\u00a0tell your marriage partner the thoughts that\u00a0you tell yourself, without expecting to be accused, or laughed at, or\u00a0any other improper reaction. This is a responsibility of both wife and husband to respect and appreciate the other person.<\/p>\n

To be subject to\u00a0the\u00a0husband<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Word of God says:<\/p>\n

Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.\u00a0For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.\u00a0But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything. (Ephesians 5:22-24)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The<\/span> perverted spirit of modern times makes some women\u00a0feel\u00a0abased when\u00a0they read these verses from the Bible and to see themselves lower\u00a0before God. Isn\u2019t it so? The fact that you are required to show subjection, does not mean that you are inferior as value before God, but is a necessity to live in good harmony, to reflect the nature of God and realize\u00a0the call\u00a0He has\u00a0put\u00a0in a\u00a0our marriages before, namely, to reflect the relationship between Christ and\u00a0His Church. To the end of this chapter, through\u00a0the apostle Paul, God said:<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband. (Ephesians 5:33)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When it\u00a0says \u201cto fear\u201d does not\u00a0mean that has to be motivated by fear not to be punished, but to have an attitude of respect so as to fear not to\u00a0make her husband angry and to affect the nice relationship they\u00a0should\u00a0have.<\/p>\n

To love her husband\u00a0with love and affection <\/strong><\/h2>\n

When Apostle Paul gives\u00a0instructions to Titus how to teach people from the churches of Crete island, he wrote\u00a0him the\u00a0following:<\/p>\n

Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good,\u00a0so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,\u00a0to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored. (Titus 2:3-5)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The word translated\u00a0here \u201cto love their husbands\u201d is the Greek\u00a0philandros<\/em> and it means to show a friendly love, and full of affection. And there is\u00a0one more\u00a0important thing, the man is put here before the children. A wise wife\u00a0will always know to give affectionate\u00a0love\u00a0to her husband\u00a0even when they have\u00a0little children, or\u00a0have many children. She will not neglect her husband under the plea that she has many worries. And then, the children are safe and fulfilled, when\u00a0they see a relationship full of affection to their parents.<\/p>\n

If you are married, no longer accept the teachings of those who say that you have to be equal in everything with your husband. This is not equality, but it is an usurpation and\u00a0it\u00a0will finally make you miserable and will bring pain and sorrow to your husband and to\u00a0others. If you want to experience the true joy of being a wife, choose to live\u00a0in your marriage according to the role God has created you for.<\/p>\n
