'Wife' in the Bible
It is reported everywhere [that there] is sexual immorality among you, and sexual immorality of such a kind which [does] not [even exist] among the Gentiles, so that someone has the wife of [his] father.
But because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife and let each woman have her own husband.
The husband must fulfill his obligation to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband.
The wife does not have authority over her own body, but her husband [does]. And likewise also the husband does not have authority over his own body, but his wife [does].
To the married I command--not I, but the Lord--a wife must not separate from [her] husband.
But if indeed she does separate, she must remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband must not divorce [his] wife.
Now to the rest I say--not the Lord--if any brother has an unbelieving wife and she consents to live with him, he must not divorce her.
And if any wife has an unbelieving husband and he consents to live with her, she must not divorce her husband.
For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by his wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the brother, since otherwise your children are unclean, but now they are holy.
For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek release. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek a wife.
But the one who is married cares for the things of the world, how he may please his wife,
A wife is bound for as long a time [as] her husband lives. But if her husband {dies}, she is free to marry whomever she wishes, only in the Lord.
Do we not have the right to take along a sister [as] wife, like the rest of the apostles and the brothers of the Lord and Cephas?
