In this podcast episode, we read Genesis 20:1-13 from the Common English Bible. In this passage, Abraham expects Sarah to mislead others on his behalf. This story raises an important question: "Does the Bible teach wives to 'obey' their husbands?" To answer this question, we examine what the New Testament teaches about marriage relationships. We examine verses in Ephesians chapter 5 and 1st Peter chapter 3, specifically focusing on the language of "headship" and "submission," and the meaning of these terms to a first century, Greek-speaking audience.
