1 | So are husbands accountable? | Gen 29:30 | Montana | 137014 | ||
So are husbands held accountable if they do not love their wives? Will their prayers be hindered if they follow Jacobs example in his relationship to Leah? What about the command for husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church, was that not applicable to Jacob? | ||||||
2 | So are husbands accountable? | Gen 29:30 | srbaegon | 137025 | ||
Hello Montana, Yes, they are accountable. 1 Pet 3:7 (ESV) Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered. But I think you already knew this verse because of the way you phrased it earlier. Steve |

3 | Why ask about Jacob - Leah again? | Gen 29:30 | Searcher56 | 137033 | ||
Scripture ... Eph 5:22-33; Col 3:17-25 ......... On husbands loving their wives (read the context) Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, Eph 5:28 So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself; Eph 5:33 Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself Col 3:19 Husbands, love your wives and do not be embittered against them. "Will their prayers be hindered if they follow Jacobs example in his relationship to Leah?" ... I told you the Bible doesn't say his prayers were hindered. Genesis 29:30 says he LOVED Leah, tho less the Rachel. |

4 | Why ask about Jacob - Leah again? | Gen 29:30 | srbaegon | 137045 | ||
Hello Searcher, True, verse 30 says that, and verse 31 says Leah was hated. I'm sure it was a comparison about the level of affection towards the two. Steve |

5 | Why ask about Jacob - Leah again? | Gen 29:30 | Searcher56 | 137071 | ||
I wonder if the "hate" is akin to Romans 9:13? Montana is trying to prove something that isn't there. |
