1 | HOW CAN ONE LIVE WITH A QUARRELSOME WIFE | Proverbs | GrannyBrat | 27343 | ||
I'm so sorry. I should have said it differently. It's not the scripture that is imbalanced. Scripture should be balanced with other scriptures. That's what I meant. It's hard when one uses the medium of the written word. What I mean using certain words could be construed as meaning something else because we are not interacting face to face. I'm sorry if I made my statement in such a way as to be obscure. A querrelsome woman would not be soothed if she had this verse quoted to her, but might find it palatable were the verse balanced out with verses about mutual submission or the man's duty to lay down his life for his wife. |

2 | HOW CAN ONE LIVE WITH A QUARRELSOME WIFE | Proverbs | GrannyBrat | 27318 | ||
If a man is thoughtful, kind, considerate, and really "knows" his wife, she is less likely to be quarrelsome. One wonders how this verse would have been written had a woman written the book of Proverbs. (No, I'm not quibbling that it was inspired by God, but scripture needs to be balanced and this one is used quite a bit to put women down when they have legitimate complaints about their husbands.) | ||||||
