Our prayers are unhindered at that point. Another version. Says it this way. Live with your wives, with the proper understanding that they are more delicate than you. I do have a few things I would like to read again this morning. I have a book I hadn't brought before. It's called his brain, her brain. Very valuable book. It's written by a Christian couple. And there's something here they have to say about. A woman that. I like how they how they say it. I think it's powerful. They talk here about these verses from First Peter. And what the word weaker really means. And he says this. One day I was in the physicians lounge of our local hospital, having a cup of coffee with his psychiatrist friend named Peter, who had grown up in Greece. Peter was my local expert in the Greek language, so I asked him how he interpreted the Greek word, asked Chinese and I don't know if I'm pronouncing that right, but that's the Greek word translated weaker. As he explained, the various descriptions, by the way he mentions before this, that, that that word is difficult to translate properly into English. There's not an English word that really says it well, and so this is coming from that conversation. As he explained, the various descriptions of the word to me, this word weaker, I was pleasantly surprised. Surprised to discover a much richer and deeper meaning, it not only means weaker in the sense of the literal word, but. He said this term could be used to describe the most fragile and valuable art. |
