Ephesians 5:33 Meaning and Commentary

Ephesians 5:33

Nevertheless, let everyone of you in particular
The apostle returns to his former subject, and recapitulates the mutual duties of husband and wife, after he had enforced them from the instance and example of Christ, and his church; and would have every married person in particular take the directions and instructions given, to themselves: as that the husband

so love his wife even as himself;
since they two are one flesh:

and the wife [see] that she reverence [her] husband;
since he leaves father and mother for her, and is the head of her; (See Gill on Ephesians 5:22).

Ephesians 5:33 In-Context

31 Because of this a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be united to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh.

32 This mystery is great, but *I* speak as to Christ, and as to the assembly.
