Some people are teachers, other are students. The teacher is not greater than the student but has a different role. Some people are employers, others are employees. The employer is not greater than the employee but has a different role. Some people are husbands, some are wives, and one is not greater than the other they just have different roles.
Husbands are the heads of the home, wives are the necks.
A submissive wife understands her husband's responsibility before God. She supports, encourages, aids, constructively criticizes, and most importantly loves him despite his faults and failures. When wives are being submissive to their husbands, they are being submissive to God. This means that God is pleased with their submission. On the other hand, when wives do not live in submission to their husbands, they are not in submission to God.
