Ephesians 5:31 in Context — Ephesians 5
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.
32 Este misterio grande es: mas yo digo [esto] con respecto á Cristo y á la iglesia.
33 Cada uno empero de vosotros de por sí, ame también á su mujer como á sí mismo; y la mujer reverencie á su marido.
