NASB | 1 Peter 3:7 ¶ You husbands in the same way, live with your wives in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, since she is a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 3:7 ¶ In the same way, you husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way [with great gentleness and tact, and with an intelligent regard for the marriage relationship], as with someone physically weaker, since she is a woman. Show her honor and respect as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered or ineffective. |
Bible Question: In 1st or 2nd peter it states that a mans prayer will be hindered if he does not love his wife as Christ loved the church. Does that mean a man that does not love his wife will never have a prayer answered. |
Bible Answer: Scriptute ... 1 Pet 3:7; Eph 5:25, 28-33 ... medorthyjean, greetings and welcome. You have blended two verses (1 Pet 3:7, Eph 5:25), which even preachers do ... sometimes they do it on purpose. If husbands don't live with their wives in an understanding way and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, his prayers may be hindered. 1 Pet 3:7 You husbands in the same way, live with your wives in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, since she is a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered. Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her 28 So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself; 29 for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church, 30 because we are members of His body. 31 FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND SHALL BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH. 32 This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband.
