1 Duty is Subjection, which is a general duty commended in Gen. 3.16. For we must think that this is not a judgement only, but also a commandment, as the judgement upon Adam, of eating his bread in the sweat of his brows, was also a commandment that he should not live without a calling, Gen. 3.19. And from this ground, the Apostles and Prophets have raised this doctrine of the wives submission, that we stand not to recite all the places severally.
