Ephesians 5:29 in Context — Ephesians 5
27 Para presentársela gloriosa para sí, una iglesia que no tuviese mancha ni arruga, ni cosa semejante; sino que fuese santa y sin mancha.
28 Así también los maridos deben amar á sus mujeres como á sus mismos cuerpos. El que ama á su mujer, á sí mismo se ama.
29 Porque ninguno aborreció jamás á su propia carne, antes la sustenta y regala, como también Cristo á la iglesia;
30 Porque somos miembros de su cuerpo, de su carne y de sus huesos.
31 Por esto dejará el hombre á su padre y á su madre, y se allegará á su mujer, y serán dos en una carne.
