Bible Note: To answer your last question. What I meant to say was that this verse (with the note attached to it) goes along with the next. I guess, also, I wanted to point out that there were three passages (at least, but three I listed) on the subject) at hand, not just the one verse. The Lord, through Paul, addresses both the husbands and the wives. (Not just the wives.) And now for the first, I agree with you on the "convenience". I do not consider it convenient to love someone else (and it doesn't have to be). To me, it seems like a heavy load to bear (like most (or could I say "each of the rest") of God's commandments). Sorry for the confusion. Benjamite |
