Women are more easily deceived than men.

That is one reason men are in authority over women. Men typically make better decisions.

2 Corinthians 11:3

[3] But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

1 Timothy 2:11-14 KJV

[11] Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

[12] But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

[13] For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

[14] And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

However, husbands must make decisions after consulting their wives, to get their thinking. This way men make much better decisions.

Genesis 2:20-22 KJV

[20] And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

[21] And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

[22] And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

Adam needed a “help meet.” That is, an ideal helper. God gave him a wife to provide the ideal help that Adam needed. A wife is a husband’s ideal helper for making decisions.

Here is somewhat of an example of that in the Bible.

1 Samuel 25:32-33 KJV

[32] And David said to Abigail, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me:

[33] And blessed be thy advice, and blessed be thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to shed blood, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.

Though Abigail was not David‘s wife at this time, soon after she became his wife.
