§. 43. Of a wiues actiue Obedience.

:2596p. 315

It is a good proof and trial of a wives obedience, to abstain from doing such things as otherwise she would do, if her husbands contrary will did not restrain her: but yet that is not sufficient, there must be an active, as well as a passive obedience yielded. That old Law before mentioned (thy desire shall be subject to thine husband, and he shall rule over thee) implieth so much also. If she refuse to do what he would have her to do, her desire is not subject to him, but to her self, neither doth he rule over her.

It is a good proofe and triall of a wiues obedience, to abstaine from doing such things as otherwise she would doe, if her husbands contrarie will did not restraine her: but yet that is not sufficient, there must be an actiue, as well as a passiue obedience yeelded. That old Law before mentioned (thy desire shall be subiect to thine husband, and he shall rule ouer thee) implieth so much also. If she refuse to doe what he would haue her to doe, her desire is not subiect to him, but to her selfe, neither doth he rule ouer her.
