7Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.



1 Peter 3:7



I would like to ask both men and Ladies what practically do you see this " understanding" Peter is telling us men to have?





For you ladies specifically what significance does a man understanding have for you?

I read a good article on this topic where Bob Deffinbaugh explains it this way...

"The principle thrust of Peter�s command to husbands, therefore, is this: Husbands, keep on living with your wives in accordance with that knowledge which you now have as Christians. Further evidence in support of this emphasis on Scriptural knowledge can be seen in Peter�s description of our condition before salvation as being �ignorant:�"

In the article, he explains his case very thoroughly as to why he believes it means this.

LTM, you've said your peace to me several times. Please move on

To be more specific in my question.



In a relationship with a woman when she is thinking emotionally and we are thinking logically or biblically......



How do we live in that moment according to understanding?



What does that moment look like for you? (You meaning everyone not just GUD but including GUD)

Men, What do you do?



Throw up your hands? Run off? Hit her over the head with the bible?



What are your reactions or responses to a womans emotional thinking that completly makes no sense logically?





Ladies in that moment what would you like to recieve from your man and what does that look like?

Certainly one of the things context seemingly indicates although I don't believe it's exactly what you are going for is that we stay with them. The woman must know that her husband is not going anywhere. That provides stability.

Everyone knows (and if they didn't now they do) that all of this is just another set up for you to tell everyone what an amazing man you are. You know how it goes, right? Let me see if I can paraphrase it for everyone and save some time.



"I have transformed myself into a true leader. I have mastered the art of unity with a woman. I now understand what submission looks like in a practical sense...yada yada. I used to be like all of you other clowns but now I have enlightened and transformed myself into an almost iconic being. This is why I have a woman and you don't. I am getting married and you are not. Come follow after me and I will grant you deep wisdom... blah blah blah.... "



So, cut to it already. Enough with the dramatic setup.
