Verſe 22. Wives ſubmit, &c.] This includes reverence, obedience, &c. God hath ſcattered the duties of husbands and wives up and down the Scritptures, that they may ſearch, and by learning to be good husbands and wives, they may learn alſo to be good men and women.

As unto the Lord] Who taketh himſelf diſhonoured by wives diſobedience. And though husbands may remit the offence done to them, yet they cannot remit Gods offence, but there muſt be ſpeciall repentance.
