1488. Never Told to Lead? What Paul Actually Says in Ephesians 5

In this Bible Scholar Reacts episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb responds to a viral video claiming that Paul never commands husbands to lead their wives and that the Greek word kephale (“head”) only means “source,” not authority.Is that linguistically accurate?

Dr. Halcomb affirms what’s right in the argument — but also explains where the Greek is being stretched beyond what the evidence can support. Looking at Ephesians 5, the Septuagint, Judges 11:11, Isaiah 7:8, and Colossians 2:10, this episode explores how context determines meaning — and why absolute linguistic claims can be dangerous.Paul doesn’t destroy the metaphor of headship. He transforms it.
