1 Peter 3:1
Various Practical Duties
SUMMARY OF I PETER 3: Duties of Women. Duties of Husbands. Duties of
Christians Toward Each Other. Attitude Toward Adversaries. Christian
Endurance of Wrong. Christ's Preaching to the Spirits in Prison.
Salvation of Those in the Ark. The Antitype Is Baptism.
Likewise, ye wives, [be] in subjection to your own husbands. See
notes on Ephesians 5:21-24. Paul teaches the duty of submission, and
shows that it was not the duty of the believing wife to abandon her
unbelieving husband (1 Corinthians 7:13-15). Peter goes farther here and
teaches that the wife show her obedience in order to win her husband.
That, if any obey not the word. That even those who have steeled
themselves against the gospel and who refuse to listen to it
they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the
wives. May be quietly won by the sweet, Christian lives of their
wives.
