Is "Patriarchy" part of the curse in Genesis 3:16? Looking at key Hebrew words, parallel passages, and the broader context of Genesis, we demonstrate why viewing male authority as part of the curse misinterprets God's design for marriage. We address common misconceptions about patriarchy, discuss the difference between godly leadership and domineering control, and explain how proper male headship leads to flourishing families.

Join Jerry Dorris and Tanner Cartwright as we tackle challenging questions about biblical marriage, gender roles, and what it means for husbands to lead with both authority and gentleness. Whether you're wrestling with these concepts or seeking deeper understanding of God's design for marriage, this episode provides biblical clarity on this vital topic.
