!! I. Submission Expected (1-2)
!!! A. Because it is Commanded
* In the same way - as we submit to the government, as we submit to masters (employers), and more importantly as Jesus submitted to the Father.
* Own husbands, not any one elses.
Also not a blanket submission of all women to all men.
!!! B. Because of its Effectiveness
* If they are disobedient to the word.
This would include both unbelievers and erreing christian husbands.
* won - to be gained to your side.
this is used in Mattew 18 of winning a borther and in 1 Corinthians 9:19 of Paul winning unbelievers.
* without a word by their "conversation" or manner of life.
* chaste = exciting reverence, sacred
* respectful = fear, dread, terror.
Just as we fear the Lord.
* Your husbands are watching you even if they don't seem to be.
What are they observing?
sarcasm, back talk, selfishness, spiritual carelessness?
Or holy, prayerful, giving, respectful living.
* [George Müller told of a wealthy German whose wife was a devout believer.
This man was a heavy drinker, spending late nights in the tavern.
She would send the servants to bed, stay up till he returned, receive him kindly, and never scold him or complain.
At times she would even have to undress him and put him to bed.
One night in the tavern he said to his cronies, “I bet if we go to my house, my wife will be sitting up, waiting for me.
She’ll come to the door, give us a royal welcome, and even make supper for us, if I ask her.”
They were skeptical at first, but decided to go along and see.
Sure enough, she came to the door, received them courteously, and willingly agreed to make supper for them without the slightest trace of resentment.
After serving them, she went off to her room.
As soon as she had left, one of the men began to condemn the husband.
“What kind of a man are you to treat such a good woman so miserably?”
The accuser got up without finishing his supper and left the house.
Another did the same and another till they had all departed without eating the meal.
Within a half hour, the husband became deeply convicted of his wickedness, and especially of his heartless treatment of his wife.
He went to his wife’s room, asked her to pray for him, repented of his sins, and surrendered to Christ.
From that time on, he became a devoted disciple of the Lord Jesus.
Won without a word!
- MacDonald, Believer's Bible Commentary]
!! II.
Submission Displayed (3-4)
!!! A. Externally
* adornment = kosmos - cosmetics
* Peter is not condemning these practices, he is making a comparison.
If he were commanding women not to practice these things then
* [Italian made sweater dress at Neiman Marcus for $1,295.00,
Los Angeles hair studio, Neil George, where the hair cuts start at $150.]
!!! B. Internally
* imperishable - unlike passing beauty Proverbs 31:30.
* gentle or meek.
Not self promoting.
It is not all about them.
* quiet or tranquil.
Not ruffled by turbulant circumstances.
* Any husband is proud of a wife who is attractive, but that beauty must come from the heart, not the store Wiersbe, W. W. (1996, c1989).
