FRUITS OF THE FAITHFUL HUSBAND
The term husband is derived from the old English word hūsbōndi : hūs = “house” and bōndi = “dweller”, which etymologically means “householder”. So literally, the husband is the “house-band”. Just as the “money-band” holds money together to make it firm and secure, and when it is loosed or torn the money gets scattered, the husband also holds or bands a house together and if he is “loosed or torn”, the house becomes unstable and insecure. Have you ever wondered why people enter a certain house and they ask, “Isn’t there a man in this house?” Seven Fruits of the Faithful Man The envy of many women is the faithful man (husband).
