1 Peter 3:7

I Peter 3:7 Ye husbands. Duties of Christian husbands are now briefly stated. They are to dwell with [them]. The fact that their wives are unconverted is no ground for separation, but if the wife is converted, still stronger is the bond. According to knowledge. A knowledge that shows judgment, moderation and gentleness as toward one weaker than himself. As being heirs together of the grace of life. "Joint-heirs" (Revised Version). Hence "one in Christ Jesus". The home life is to be regulated according to knowledge. That your prayers be not hindered. Mutual prayer is not possible unless there is mutual love and forbearance. Nor can the husband's prayers be acceptable unless he treats his wife aright.
