So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself.
All Commentaries on Ephesians 5:28 Go To Ephesians 5
Cyprian of Carthage
AD 258
Yet he adds, and says: "Because he who loves his wife, loves himself. For no one hates his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as Christ the Church."
