Ephesians 5:31 in Context — Ephesians 5
29 Car jamais personne n’a haï sa propre chair; mais il la nourrit et en prend soin, comme Christ le fait pour l’Église,
30 parce que nous sommes membres de son corps.
31 C’est pourquoi l’homme quittera son père et sa mère, et s’attachera à sa femme, et les deux deviendront une seule chair.
32 Ce mystère est grand; je dis cela par rapport à Christ et à l’Église.
33 Du reste, que chacun de vous aime sa femme comme lui-même, et que la femme respecte son mari.
