The two will become one flesh. —Ephesians5:31. •Jehovah God expects husbands to stick loyally to their wives, always showing them loving-kindness. A husband, then, would not expose the faults of his wife in public or speak disparagingly of her. He is happy to praise her. (Proverbs31:28) If friction arises in the relationship, loving-kindness moves the husband to restrain his tongue from humiliating his wife. Loving-kindness should also govern the tongue of the wife. Her speech should not be influenced by the spirit of the world. Having “deep respect for her husband,” she speaks well of him in public and increases the respect others may already have for him. (Ephesians5:33) Not wanting to diminish the respect the children have for their father, she refrains from disagreeing with him or questioning his opinion in front of them. “The truly wise woman has built up her house,” says the Bible. (Proverbs14:1) Her home is a pleasant and comfortable place for the entire family. *Pls do visit jw.org
