O Papel do Homem

10 For even when we were with you we gave you orders, saying, If any man does no work, let him not have food.

7 And you husbands, give thought to your way of life with your wives, giving honour to the woman who is the feebler vessel, but who has an equal part in the heritage of the grace of life; so that you may not be kept from prayer.

13 Be on the watch, unmoved in the faith, and be strong like men.

19 Husbands, have love for your wives, and be not bitter against them.

18 And do not take overmuch wine by which one may be overcome, but be full of the Spirit;

19 For I have made him mine so that he may give orders to his children and those of his line after him, to keep the ways of the Lord, to do what is good and right: so that the Lord may do to Abraham as he has said.

8 If anyone has no care for his family and those in his house, he is false to the faith, and is worse than one who has no faith.

25 Husbands, have love for your wives, even as Christ had love for the church, and gave himself for it;

23 Whatever you do, do it readily, as to the Lord and not to men;

2 The Bishop, then, is to be a man of good name, the husband of one wife, self-controlled, serious-minded, having respect for order, opening his house freely to guests, a ready teacher;

3 Not quickly moved to wrath or blows, but gentle; no fighter, no lover of money;

4 Ruling his house well, having his children under control with all serious behaviour;

4 And, you fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.
