Genesis 2:20-25
And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the
air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was
not found an help meet for him. (21) And the LORD God
caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and
he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead
thereof; (22) And the rib, which the LORD God had taken
from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the
man. (23) And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones,
and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because
she was taken out of Man. (24) Therefore shall a man
leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his
wife: and they shall be one flesh. (25) And they were both
naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Ephesians 5:22-28
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as
unto the Lord. (23) For the husband is the head of the
wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is
the saviour of the body. (24) Therefore as the church is
subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own
husbands in every thing. (25) Husbands, love your wives,
even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for
it; (26) That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the
washing of water by the word, (27) That he might
present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or
wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and
without blemish. (28) So ought men to love their wives
as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
