Bible Question: I WILL LIKE TO HAVE AN EXPLANATION ON THE SCRIPTURE IN PROVERBS WHICH SAYS THAT IT IS BETTER TO STAY IN THE CORNER OF THE ROOF OF YOUR HOUSE THAN TO LIVE WITH A QUARRELSOME WIFE. |
Bible Answer: 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.) |
