But he insisteth upon her obedience: And he bringeth this reason, because it is comely: It had been a notable reason to have persuaded her to subjection, because the Lord commands her will to be subject unto her husband: And howsoever before the fall she1 was subjected unto him, yet after the fall, her yoke was heavier, & therefore the Lord saith: Thy will shall be subject to thy husband, & he shall rule over thee. Again, as 1. Cor. 11. 9. He might have said the woman was made for the man, not the man for the woman. And2 the woman was taken out of the man, not the man out of the woman.
