Proverbs 14:1 TPT “Every wise woman encourages and builds up her family, but a foolish woman over time will tear it down by her own actions.“
In Hebrew, the word “woman” means wife or married female.
So the Bible says, a wife has two paths or two roles. You either will build up your family or tear it down by your own action!
There is no place in the Bible where it says that the man or husband will be the builder or the one who tears down the family. Such a role belongs to the wife. How?
In Hebrew, the wife means one who bonds. The husband means one who protects or provides.
How a wife speaks to a husband and how a wife treats her husband in private or public may also speak whether she is a builder or destroyer.
What is her reward for building?
Proverbs 31:30 TPT “Charm can be misleading, and beauty is vain and so quickly fades, but this virtuous woman lives in the wonder, awe, and fear of the Lord. She will be praised throughout eternity.“
