Ephesians 5:28

Translate, "So ought husbands also (thus the oldest manuscripts read) to love their own (compare Note, see on Ephesians 5:22) wives as their own bodies."

He that loveth his wife loveth himself—So there is the same love and the same union of body between Christ and the Church (Ephesians 5:30, Ephesians 5:32).
