How should wives respond to the headship of their husbands? Ephesians 5:22 says: ‘Let wives be in subjection to their husbands as to the Lord.’ Eph 5 Verse 24 adds: ‘In fact, as the congregation is in subjection to the Christ, so let wives also be to their husbands in everything.’

For example, when a man is out working, people are sometimes unkind or even downright nasty. As a wife does her housework or cares for children, some days it seems that everything goes wrong. This can give rise to tension and create a ‘need’ for sayings that are ‘good for building up,’ as the apostle Paul put it. ( Eph. 4:29) Will your homelife provide such a refreshing atmosphere?

Your husband is fully able to express the thoughts of both of you at least once a day in the evening. This will have the effect of drawing you closer together, and both of you closer to God. And there is so much for which to thank Jehovah at the end of a day.” Here are some other words you can use to describe starting well: “We got off to a strong start.” That’s probably the most common.

So as to be no longer on, attached, or connected: He shaved off his mustache. b. So as to be divided: We marked off the playing field A wedding talk is not the only occasion for Jehovah’s witnesses to receive counsel on these matters. Their magazines, books and booklets regularly discuss marriage and the responsibilities of family members toward one another. Some recent articles of this type appearing in The Watchtower and Awake! were entitled “Is God in Your Marriage?”, “Woman’s Regard for Headship​—How Demonstrated?”, “Is Divorce the Answer?”. His adept performance impressed Quentin Letts, the normally hard-to-please Times sketch writer, who thought Chalk could have been a potential party leader if his constituency had not been so marginal (‘safer seat could turn Chalk into big cheese’).

It can be a literal statement when people are hammering nails, but it is often used as an idiom to mean "You are exactly right."
