also filthiness, and foolish talking, or jesting, the things not fit but rather thanksgiving;

Let no one deceive you with vain words, for because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the sons of the disobedience,

Wherefore become not unwise, but understanding what is the will of God.

Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of his body.

Ephesians 5:24

but even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also [are] the wives to their own husbands in everything.

for no one ever his own flesh did hate, but doth nourish and cherish it, as also the Lord the assembly,

For never yet has a man hated his own body. On the contrary he feeds and cherishes it, just as Christ feeds and cherishes the Church;

For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church:

Ephesians 5:30

because members we are of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones;

because we are, as it were, parts of His Body.

Because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

Ephesians 5:31

`for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and they shall be the two for one flesh;`
