It emphasizes the importance of love and commitment within the marital relationship, highlighting the role of a wife in nurturing and maintaining a loving bond with her husband.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the Greco-Roman world, marriage was often seen as a social contract rather than a romantic union. However, the Christian perspective, as reflected in the New Testament, elevated the concept of marriage to a covenantal relationship characterized by mutual love and respect. The use of "philandros" in the biblical context underscores the transformative nature of Christian marriage, where love is central to the relationship between husband and wife.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>5362</b> <i>phílandros</i> (from <a href="/greek/5384.htm">5384</a> <i>/phílos</i>, "loving friend" and <a href="/greek/435.htm">435</a> <i>/anḗr</i>, "husband, the male companion of a wife") – properly, the special affection of a woman for her life-time mate (husband), embracing him as her "calling" (stewardship) from God (used only in Tit 2:4).</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/greek/5384.htm">philos</a> and <a href="/greek/435.htm">anér</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>loving men, (of a wife) loving her husband<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>love their husbands (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 5362: φίλανδρος</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">φίλανδρος</span></span>, <span class="greek2">φιλανδρον</span> (<span class="greek2">φίλος</span> and <span class="greek2">ἀνήρ</span>) (from <span class="abbreviation">Aeschylus</span> down (in other senses)), <span class="accented">loving her husband</span>: <a href="/interlinear/titus/2-4.htm">Titus 2:4</a> (<span class="greek2">φιλανδροι</span> <span class="greek2">καί</span> <span class="greek2">σώφρονες</span> <span class="greek2">γυναῖκες</span>, <span class="abbreviation">Plutarch</span>, praec. conj. c. 28).<FOOTNOTE:1> <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>love their husband<p>From <a href="/greek/5384.htm">philos</a> and <a href="/greek/435.htm">aner</a>;
