What does 1 Peter 3:2 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
1 Peter 3:2
While they behold your chaste conversation
Cheerful subjection, strong affection, and inviolable attachment
to them, and strict regard to the honour of the marriage state,
and to the preserving of the bed undefiled with lusts and
adulteries:
coupled with fear;
with reverence of their husbands, giving them due honour, and
showing all proper respect; or with the fear of God, which being
before their eyes, and upon their hearts, engages them to such an
agreeable conversation.
