Colossians 3:18 Douay-Rheims

Wives, be subject to your husbands, as it behoveth in the Lord.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

That is, be subject for God's sake, because this adorneth you, he saith, not them. For I mean not that subjection which is due to a master, nor yet that alone which is of nature, but that for God's sake.
