Quote of the Day

“Eve was not taken out of Adam's head to top him, neither out of his feet to be trampled on by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected by him, and near his heart to be loved by him.”

-Matthew Henry

I love this quote, but I've never met a Christian girl who doesn't. Matthew Henry's one of my favorite commentators. I love the Matthew Henry Study Bible.

Couldn't sound sweeter to a woman, than out of the mouth (or keyboard) of a man... but why is it when a woman says it she's a femenist fighting for equal rights? I love old fashioned chivalry, when a man was allowed to put his arm around a woman. Kudos on the quote.
